Behavioral analysis of the Pet Store Stroop task found "Children were more accurate on 'NonStroop' compared to 'Stroop' trials, t(107) = 5.021, p < .001" (M = 76.49% vs. 66.26%).

"Accuracy was good for both 'NonStroop' (M = 76.49%; SD = 18.57%;) and 'Stroop' conditions (M = 66.26%; SD = 25.80%). Children were more accurate on 'NonStroop' compared to 'Stroop' trials, t(107) = 5.021, p < .001."

Reaction time analysis found "Children were faster on the 'NonStroop' (M = 2740.30 ms; SD = 495.94 ms) compared to the 'Stroop' (M = 2985.35 ms; SD = 495.11 ms) condition" (t(106) = 6.283, p < .001).

"Reaction time also varied based on condition (t(106) = 6.283, p < .001). Children were faster on the 'NonStroop' (M = 2740.30 ms; SD = 495.94 ms) compared to the 'Stroop' (M = 2985.35 ms; SD = 495.11 ms) condition."

Related Claims¶

• Low working memory span individuals are more affected by Stroop task lapses and report more task-related mind-wandering — related
• Greater parent-reported temperamental effortful control predicts less DLPFC activation during cognitive flexibility in preschoolers — related
• The Stroop condition elicits significantly more left DLPFC activation than the NonStroop condition in preschoolers — related
• Congruency effects on both numerical and non-numerical inhibition tasks occur in all three age groups, with an age-by-congruency interaction only on the numerical task — a broader claim this one bears on
• Match trials are more accurate and faster than mismatch trials in the dual-modality task, with no language group difference — related
