A sample of adults with generalized anxiety disorder are participating in a Stroop task in which threat-related words are presented in different colors on a computer screen. As compared with adults without an anxiety disorder, the sample should take __________.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The sample will take longer to name the colors of the words

Explanation:

It is normal to feel anxious once in a while. However people with Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) are constantly worried, restless and have trouble concentrating.

The Stroop task is a psychological test where name of a color is written with a different ink. This will cause a delay in response time due to mismatch of stimuli.

Therefore, the sample which consists of adults with GAD will take longer to name the colors of the words.
