  2. Stroop effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stroop_effect

    Another variant of the classic Stroop effect is the reverse Stroop effect. It occurs during a pointing task. In a reverse Stroop task, individuals are shown a page with a black square with an incongruent colored word in the middle—for instance, the word "red" written in the color green (red)—with four smaller colored squares in the corners ...

  3. Numerical Stroop effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_Stroop_effect

    The numerical Stroop effect, a concept rooted in cognitive psychology, refers to the interference that occurs when individuals are asked to compare numerical values or physical sizes of digits presented together. The effect arises when there is a mismatch—or incongruity—between the numerical value and the physical size of the digits.

  4. Simon effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon_effect

    The challenge in the Simon effect is said to occur during the response selection stage of judgment. This is due to two factors which eliminate the stimulus identification stage and the execution state. In the stimulus identification stage, the participant only needs to be cognitively aware that a stimulus is present.

  5. Talk:Stroop effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Stroop_effect

    Anything that reduces interference when an incongruent stimulus occurs immediately after an incongruent trial rather than a congruent trial, refers to conflict adaptation, also known as cognitive control [2]. Cognitive control allows individuals to control all aspects of their thoughts. This is vague. Also not really related to the stroop effect.

  6. Observer effect (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observer_effect_(physics)

    In physics, the observer effect is the disturbance of an observed system by the act of observation. [1] [2] This is often the result of utilising instruments that, by necessity, alter the state of what they measure in some manner.

  7. CP violation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CP_violation

    The anomalous excess of matter over antimatter after the Big Bang in the orthochronous (or positive) sector, becomes an excess of antimatter before the Big Bang (antichronous or negative sector) as both charge conjugation, parity and arrow of time are reversed due to CPT reflections of all phenomena occurring over the initial singularity:

  8. Quantum decoherence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_decoherence

    In classical scattering of a target body by environmental photons, the motion of the target body will not be changed by the scattered photons on the average. In quantum scattering, the interaction between the scattered photons and the superposed target body will cause them to be entangled, thereby delocalizing the phase coherence from the target body to the whole system, rendering the ...

  9. Bragg's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bragg's_law

    Bragg diffraction occurs when radiation of a wavelength λ comparable to atomic spacings is scattered in a specular fashion (mirror-like reflection) by planes of atoms in a crystalline material, and undergoes constructive interference. [10] When the scattered waves are incident at a specific angle, they remain in phase and constructively interfere.
