You were given an opportunity to take the Stroop task in which color words are printed in the wrong


Question: You were given an opportunity to take the Stroop task in which color words are printed in the wrong color; for example, the word red might be printed in the color blue. The conflict that arises when we try to read the words, but are distracted by the colors, increases our reaction tiMeand decreases our accuracy. Several researchers have suggested that the Streoop effect can be decrease by hypnosis. Raz used brain imagining techniques (fMRI) to demonstrate that posthypnotic suggestion led highly hypnotizable individuals to see Stroop words as nonsense words. Imagine that you are working with Raz and your assignment is to determine if reaction times decrease (remember, a decrease is a good thing, it indicates that participants are faster) when highly hypnotizable individuals receive a posthypnotic suggestion to view the words as nonsensical. You conduct the experiment on six individuals, once in each condition, and receive the following data the first number is reaction time in seconds without the posthypnotic suggestion, and the second number is reaction with the posthypnotic suggestion:

Participant 1: (12.6, 8.5)
Participant 2: (13.8, 9.6)
Participant 3: (11.6, 10.0)
Participant 4: (12.2, 9.2)
Participant 5: (12.1, 8.9)
Participant 6: (13.0, 10.8)

b) SPSS: Conduct all six steps of a paired-samples T test. Be sure to label all six steps.

c) Report the statistics as you would in a journal article.
