  • Title: Resting Stroop task: Evidence of task conflict in trials with no required response.
    Author: Hershman R, Dadon G, Kiesel A, Henik A.
    Journal: Psychon Bull Rev; 2024 Feb; 31(1):353-360. PubMed ID: 37620635.
    Abstract:
    In the typical Stroop task, participants are presented with color words written in different ink colors and are asked to respond to their color. It has been suggested that the Stroop task consists of two main conflicts: information conflict (color vs. word naming) and task conflict (respond to color vs. read the word). In the current study, we developed a novel task that includes both Response trials (i.e., trials in which a response is required) and Rest trials (i.e., trials in which no response is required or available) and investigated the existence of both information and task conflicts in Rest trials. We found evidence for task conflict in Response and also in Rest trials, while evidence for information conflict was only observed in Response trials. These results are in line with a model of task conflict that occurs independently of and prior to information conflict in the Stroop task.
