Baseline Normal Task: Next I am going to see how quickly you can respond to the words RED and GREEN. Every time I say RED you will say STOP, and every time I say GREEN you will say GO. Try to be accurate, but respond as quickly as you can. So when I say RED you will sayAnd when I say GREEN you will sayDo you have any questions? Lets begin. This will last about 1 minute. Baseline Switched Task: Now you will do just the reverse of what you have been doing. So when you hear RED you will say GO, and when you hear GREEN you will say STOP. DO you have any questions? When I say RED you will say... and when I say GREEN you will say...Try to be accurate, but answer as quickly as you can. Experimental Task: Now we are going to mix up these two types of responses. When I give the cue NORMAL, you will respond the way you did at first: red means stop, green means go. But when I say REVERSE, you will give the reverse responses: RED means GO, GREEN means STOP. We will alternate between the NORMAL and REVERSE every few trails. Let's try a few fro practice.
