Description: Exercise those executive functions with this game based on the research-based "Stroop Effect". Users have to be mentally flexible and override the impulse to answer the "word" rather than the color. A word that is written in the color red - but says "green" - has been shown to trick research subjects into thinking they are seeing "green" when asked what color they are seeing. NOTE; The preview cards are not shuffled, but there will be variety of colors, fonts, and words randomized for more challenging play. 👍 Users are instructed to complete the cards quickly, but that accuracy is more important! See how long it takes them to get control of the knee-jerk reaction to click the word they're seeing rather than the actual color.
