“…When the color and the word conflict, as in the case of the word RED appearing in green, color naming is slowed (and more error prone) than when the word or word-like stimulus is unrelated to the color (e.g., PIN, or XXX, in green), or when the color and word match (e.g., GREEN in green). In fact, successful performance on the Stroop task correlates modestly with Gf measures (see, e.g., Dempster & Corkill, 1999;Pati & Dash, 1990;Valentine, 1975) and varies significantly with WM span (Kane & Engle, in press). With respect to Gf, Boone (1999) found that, after age was controlled for, full-scale IQ accounted for 13% of Stroop variance.…”
