FEMALES VS. MALES: the Stroop Effect Test and the Effects of

You might think, "Here we choose a" smarter "business ... but the real problem is." What kind of gender does it have? "

My experiment gives students 14-18 years old who are willing to attend carry high school have the opportunity to participate in the stroop effect test designed to make you think.

They are asked to say the color of each word (they are 5 x 8 40 color word boxes), and not their own words. The average time per gender is as follows.

Women participate more than men ... This suggests that women are more likely to show willingness to participate than men.

Cary High School women between the ages of 14 and 18 can complete the Stroop effect test (more than 4 seconds) faster than men.

Does the influence of sex lead to the test of Stroop? Clearly the gender plays a part in this test. I guess the hypothesis that sex affects the stroop effect. This is because the average time of gender changes more quickly in all tests. After studying that the female brain develops faster than men, I did my assumption, so I think that's why women answer faster. Throughout this experiment, I learned that observing your subject in experiment is very important. If I do this again, I will test kids who do not know how to read and see how fast they affect these colors. I may also test people every day at the same time so they may have more similar energy levels.

In my science fair project, I will test the result of gender influence in the stroop test. The Stroop test is a check of the brain, along with John Ridley Stroop's research on what is later called Stroop effect. "If the brain has to deal with contradictory information, the Stroop effect shows that the response time of the brain slows down This delayed reaction time can be determined by interference or processing caused by competition or incompatible function in the brain It is due to the delay. "(McMahon) In other words, the stroop effect is the study that the reaction time of the brain is delayed if the information which must be understood differs. To implement this hypothesis, a stroop test was created.

In this research, we aimed to investigate the stroop effect and check the response time of disturbing stroop in task. We selected the samples of 20 people (10 men, 10 females, 16 to 60 years of age) and completed the stroop test, they needed to read colored words (experimental and controlled). It is expected to take more time to complete the experimental word list. As a result, it turned out that it takes a long time to complete the list of experimental words. The calculated correlation T test found T value =.
