P1: Test A Perceptual Phenomenon

In this project, Stroop Effect, a classic result of experimental psychology is verified using descriptive statistics and statistical testing.

About

In this project, a well-known phenomenon from experimental psychology called the Stroop Effect is investigated.

The activities implemented in this project are:

  1. Understand the steps of the experiment.

  2. Create a hypothesis regarding the outcome of the task.

  3. From the given data collected from others who have performed the test, compute some statistics describing the results.

  4. Perform a statistical test (t-test) to test the hypothesis.

  5. Interpret your results concerning the hypothesis.

Learning Outcome

This project helped me learn to identify the components of an experiment, how to use descriptive statistics to describe qualities of a sample, how to set up a hypothesis test, make inferences from a sample, and draw conclusions based on the results.
