Abstract

The Traditional Stroop effect proves that incongruent stimuli could delay people’s reaction time, this is mainly because participants’ attention was distracted by the interference factor. Based on this principle, our group reestablishes the Stroop effect, to find out the effect under the interference of language. This experiment is displayed in English through Psychopy, and after the experiment, we found out that participants who had high proficiency in English spent a longer time naming the color of the contexts. Moreover, statistics showed that people with higher proficiency in English had a lower accuracy rate. This means that the proficiency of the language would negatively influence people during the Stroop test, perfectly reflect the basic Stroop effect.
