Does the color match the word? Test your brain!
Color Match is built on the Stroop Effect, one of the most replicated findings in experimental psychology. In 1935, John Ridley Stroop demonstrated that people are significantly slower at naming the ink color of a word when it spells a different color. For example, seeing the word "RED" printed in blue ink creates cognitive interference because reading is so automatic that your brain must actively override it. Neuropsychologists still use the Stroop test today to assess executive function, selective attention, and cognitive flexibility. Faster and more accurate responses indicate stronger cognitive control, making this a valuable brain training exercise used in clinical assessments and educational research alike.
