Procedure

Step 1: Starting the Experiment

• Launch the experiment.
• Press the spacebar to begin the task.

Step 2: Viewing the Trials

• A word will appear on the screen in a specific color.
• Your task is to identify the color of the word, not its meaning.

Step 3: Responding to the Color

• Press the key corresponding to the color of the word as quickly and accurately as possible, ignoring the word's meaning.
  • Example:
    • If the word "RED" appears in red color, press the key for red.
    • If the word "RED" appears in blue color, press the key for blue.

Step 4: Understanding Trial Types

• The experiment consists of three types of trials:
  • Congruent Trials: The word's meaning and color are the same (e.g., The word "RED" in red color).
  • Incongruent Trials: The word's meaning and color do not match (e.g., The word "RED" in blue color).
  • Neutral Trials: The word does not imply a color (e.g., The word "CHAIR" in green color).

Step 5: Response Tracking

• The experiment will record your response times and accuracy for each trial.
