A comparison between different variants of the spatial Stroop task: The influence of analytic flexibility on Stroop effect estimates and reliability
The spatial Stroop task measures the ability to resolve interference between relevant and irrelevant spatial information. We recently proposed a...

A spatial version of the Stroop task for examining proactive and reactive control independently from non-conflict processes
Conflict-induced control refers to humans’ ability to regulate attention in the processing of target information (e.g., the color of a word in the...

Stroop Task in Mindfulness Research
The Stroop task is a commonly used assessment tool in cognitive science. It presents stimuli that contain two conflicting informational aspects and...

Are eyes special? Gaze, but not pointing gestures, elicits a reversed congruency effect in a spatial Stroop task
Gaze stimuli can shape attention in a peculiar way as compared to non-social stimuli. For instance, in a spatial Stroop task, gaze stimuli elicit a...

Emotional Stroop Task in Mindfulness Research
The traditional color Stroop task tests the ability for a person to respond to the color of ink a word is printed in and inhibit the incongruent...

The Stroop legacy: A cautionary tale on methodological issues and a proposed spatial solution
The Stroop task is a seminal paradigm in experimental psychology, so much that various variants of the classical color–word version have been...

Effects of alerting signals on the spatial Stroop effect: evidence for modality differences
Reaction times and error rates to a target’s identity are impaired when the target is presented in a location that mismatches the response required,...

The Stroop Task Sex Difference: Evolved Inhibition or Color Naming?
Previous research shows that women outperform men in the classic Stroop task, but it is not known why this difference occurs. There are currently two...

On the relationship between spatial attention and semantics in the context of a Stroop paradigm
A controversial issue in the literature on single word reading concerns whether semantic activation from a printed word can be stopped. Several...

Limitations of cognitive control on emotional distraction – Congruency in the Color Stroop task does not modulate the Emotional Stroop effect
Emotional information receives prioritized processing over concurrent cognitive processes. This can lead to distraction if emotional information has...

Semantic Stroop interference is modulated by the availability of executive resources: Insights from delta-plot analyses and cognitive load manipulation
We investigated whether, during visual word recognition, semantic processing is modulated by attentional control mechanisms directed at matching...

The role of spatial uncertainty in the context-specific proportion congruency effect
The prime-probe version of the Stroop task has been predominantly used to demonstrate the context-specific proportion congruency (CSPC) effect. In...

Impact of process interference on memory encoding and retrieval processes in dual-task situations
Dual-tasks at the memory encoding stage have been shown to decrease recall performance and impair concurrent task performance. In contrast, studies...

Effects of task context on EEG correlates of mind-wandering
This study was designed to examine how mind-wandering and its neural correlates vary across tasks with different attentional demands, motivated by...

Making a saccade enhances Stroop and Simon conflict control
Cognitive control is an important ability instantiated in many situations such as conflict control (e.g., Stroop/Simon task) and the control of eye...

Both task-irrelevant and task-relevant information trigger reactive conflict adaptation in the item-specific proportion-congruent paradigm
Adapting attention flexibly is a fundamental ability of the human control system. In the color-word Stroop task, for example, congruency effects are...

How do symbolic and non-symbolic spatial-numerical associations develop? Evidence from the parity judgment task and the magnitude comparison task
Although the SNARC effects in symbolic numerals and non-symbolic numerosity have been observed in different studies, little is known about their...

Task-order control in dual-tasks: Only marginal interactions between conflict at lower levels and higher processes of task organization
When simultaneously performing two tasks that share response properties, interference can occur. Besides general performance decrements, performance...

Alertness and cognitive control: Interactions in the spatial Stroop task
Cognitive control over information processing can be implemented by selective attention, but it is often suboptimal, as indicated by congruency...
