Abstract The purpose of our experiment was to determine the time it takes to say the colour of a word when the word appears in the same colour as the description. We then timed participants and compared the results of their responses to changes we made to the words, such as assigning a different colour to the text than the words description, and the visual look of the words (ie clockwise circle, counter clockwise circle).
