This report aimed to replicate Stroop's (1935) experiment. Using the repeated measures design and a sample of 20 students, differences in verbal reaction times on two tests were observed. The one-tailed hypothesis predicted that it would take longer to say words in the Cc, this is the conflicting condition where the colour of the word differs from the colour that the word describes. It was found that, using the t-test for related data, this hypothesis could be accepted as
organized groups (one- tailed). The research method used for this investigation was an experiment of repeated measures. The average number of recalled words for the participants was 24 out of 50 words and 16 out of 50 words recalled by the participants when the words were presented to them in a disorganized fashion. A Related T-Test was used to analyze the data because the design was a repeated measure with ratio data. The results of the experiment showed that words are easier to recall if presented

the local letters were larger. In the current experiment the stimuli were global shapes and letters made up of local shapes and letters. They were tested to see the impact on processing and response times. The key features of the design was a 2x2 repeated measures design, and the participants performed on all four conditions which were two (IV’S) each with two levels. Three hypotheses were being tested. The first hypotheses was whether global is faster than local. The second hypothesis was if letters
generation condition was superior to that in read condition. Using a repeated measures design, subjects were exposed to 2 levels (conditions, namely, read condition and generate condition). After each condition, they were engaged in a simple recall task, remembering as many words as they could. This phenomenon is applied even across variations in encoding rules, timed or self-placed presentation and along with between and within subjects design. A number of potential explanatory principles are considered
A repeated measures design was not possible as randomly assigning different bands each session would have created random and most likely insignificant results. Although I did not intend to use a matched pair design, the fact that the participants are very similar reduces the extraneous variables to less than that of a normal independent measures experiment. PROCEDURE The procedure for the BEM was standardised to ensure that
Introduction: Studies on vigilance and sustained attention have been a widely studied part of psychology since the Second World War. This is because it was found that people monitoring radars for enemy ships experienced what is now known as vigilance decrement. That is when the ability of a subject to detect an abnormality during a task which primarily displays a “normal” screen. In the case of WWII radar monitors, this was to detect when an enemy submarine entered the radar. (Helton, W. S. & Russell
review a study by Stipek & Valentino (2015), which examines associations between attention and memory and academic skill development. Stipek & Valentino (2015) used longitudinal data from the children of the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth to measure how well attention and short-term and working memory in early childhood predict growth trajectories in both math and reading comprehension through adolescence and education attainment in young adulthood (Stipek & Valentino, 2015). The study indicated
