What is the Stroop Test?
About the Stroop Effect
The Stroop test measures cognitive flexibility. A color word (like "RED") appears in a different ink color — you must identify the ink color, not the word itself.
Average Accuracy
Most people score 70–85% accuracy. Trained individuals reach 90%+. The interference effect makes this surprisingly difficult.
Tips
Focus only on the text color, ignore the word meaning, and don't overthink — speed with accuracy is the goal.
FAQ
Why is it so hard?
Your brain automatically reads words, creating conflict with color identification — this is the famous Stroop effect.
