Stroop Test

The Stroop Test is a widely used neuropsychological assessment that measures an individual's ability to selectively attend and respond to specific aspects of a stimulus, while inhibiting responses to other, conflicting aspects.
This cognitive control task involves presenting words denoting colors (e.g., 'red', 'blue') printed in a color that is incongruent with the word meaning.
Participants must name the color of the ink, rather than read the word.
The time taken to respond and the accuracy of responses provide insights into an individual's executive functioning, including cognitive flexibility, processing speed, and inhibitory control.
The Stroop Test is commonly used in research and clinical settings to evaluate attention, information processing, and the impact of neurological or psychiatric conditions on cognitive processes.
Optimizing the Stroop Test with the AI-powered PubCompare.ai platform can help researchers identify the most accurate and reproducible protocols from the published literature, preprints, and patents, and leverage advanced comparisons to enhance the reliability and quality of their Stroop Test results.

Comprehensive Neuropsychological Assessment of Cognition
Participants were given neuropsychological tests by a trained rater who was blind to diagnosis. Besides MMSE, a comprehensive neuropsychological battery involving memory, language, attention, executive function and visuospatial ability was used. The tests were as follows: the Auditory Verbal Learning Test (AVLT), the Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure Test (CFT), the Boston Naming Test (BNT; the 30-item version), the Animal verbal fluency test (AFT), the Symbol Digit Modalities Test(SDMT), the STT (including Part A and B), the Stroop Color-Word Test (SCWT), the Similarity test, the Clock-drawing test (CDT), the CDR and HAMD. All tests have been proven to have a good reliability and validity in Chinese.

Standardized Neuropsychological Screening Battery - Dementia
Like the original SNSB, the SNSB-D consists of sub-domains assessing attention, language and related function, visuospatial function, memory, and frontal/executive function (Table 1). We devised a GCF score drawn from the results of the SNSB-D that includes a maximum of 300 points, which is the sum of each subdomain with 17/300 (6%) from attention, 27/300 (9%) from language and related function, 36/300 (12%) from visuospatial function, 150/300 (50%) from memory, and 70/300 (23%) from frontal/executive function.
Table 1 summarizes the differences between the SNSB-D and the original SNSB, and describes how the SNSB-D was modified from the original SNSB. The attention domain score was derived from the sum of the raw scores for forward and backward digit span. Of the many items that assess language and related functions, only naming and calculation tests were included. Specifically, a shortened version (15 item version, Form A) of the Korean version of the Boston Naming Test (K-BNT) and 12 trials of written calculations (three trials each for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) were included. The copying test from the Rey Complex Figure Test (RCFT) was used to assess visuospatial function. Several domains of memory function were assessed, including orientation, verbal memory, and visual memory. Orientation was assessed using four measures assessing orientation to time (year, month, date, day of the week) and two items assessing orientation to place ("What is this place for?" and "What's the name of this place?"). The verbal memory score was derived from the sum score of three recall trials, a delayed recall task, and a recognition task from the Seoul Verbal Learning Test (SVLT). The visual memory score was composed of the sum of the scores from the immediate recall, delayed recall, and recognition scores of the RCFT. The frontal/executive function subdomain was assessed using motor impersistence, contrasting program, go-no-go test, fist-edge-palm task, and the Luria loop task, each of which were rated on a 0 to 3 scale. Additionally, a word fluency and Stroop color-reading test were administered. For the word fluency test, a category word generation task (animal) and a phonemic word generation task ('ㄱ'/g/) were given, with a maximum score of 20 for the category word generation task and 15 for the phonemic word generation task. Thus, if the number of appropriate words generated was greater than 20 or 15, respectively, the measure was scored as 20 and 15 points. Stroop test score was converted to a maximum score of 20 by dividing the number of correct responses of color reading test by 5 and dropping the digits after the decimal points. Because of the shortening of several tests from the original SNSB as describ. ed in the above, it takes about 40-50 min to administer the SNSB-D compared with 60-80 min to complete the original SNSB.

Comprehensive Neuropsychological Evaluation of Chinese Participants
Each subject had a uniform structured evaluation performed by a neurologist, which included a medical history inquiry and neurological examination. Blood tests included complete blood count, thyroid function tests, serum vitamin B12, and Venereal Disease Research Laboratories test. CT or MRI scans were performed for all the participants. A comprehensive neuropsychological battery including memory, language, attention, executive functioning, and visuospatial ability was administered. The tests were as follows: the C-MMSE [13] (link), the LMT [18] , the RCFT [19] , the Boston Naming Test (the 30-item version) [20] , [21] , the Animal Verbal Fluency Test [22] , the Symbol Digit Modalities Test [23] (link), the Trail Making Test–A and B [24] , the Stroop Color-Word Test [25] , the Similarity Test [26] , the Clock-drawing Test [27] , the CDR [17] , and the FAQ [15] (link). All these tests have been proved to have good reliability and validity in Chinese. The neuropsychological tests were performed by three highly trained raters (Y Zhou, YM Sun, and MR Chen). The diagnoses were kept blind to the raters.

Standardized Neuropsychological Assessment of Cognitive Functions
SNSB-II, a neuropsychological battery including standardized and validated tests of a variety of cognitive functions,6 was used to access all participants, although a small number of participants could not complete all these tests. The SNSB-II evaluates many cognitive factors, including verbal and visual memory, visuoconstructive function, language, praxis, components of Gerstmann syndrome (acalculia, agraphia, right/left disorientation, finger agnosia), and frontal/executive functions. We used tests that provided numeric scores, such as digit span (forward and backward), the Korean version of the Boston Naming Test (K-BNT), the Seoul Verbal Learning Test (SVLT) (immediate and 20-minutes delayed recall and recognition), the Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure Test (RCFT) (copying, immediate and 20-minutes delayed recall and recognition), the Clock Drawing Test (CDT), the Controlled Oral Word Association Test (COWAT), the Stroop test, the Digit Symbol Coding (DSC), and part B of the Trail Making Test (TMT-B) for our study. Results with numeric continuous values were converted to z-scores using age, sex, and education criteria presented in the SNSB-II except for the DSC. We obtained 3 types of scores including raw scores, SNSB-II z-scores, and SNSB-I z-scores. SNSB-II z-scores represented standardized z-scores corrected by norms presented in the SNSB-II. SNSB-I z-score meant standardized z-scores based on norms of the SNSB-I except for the CDT, the DSC, and the TMT-B.

Assessing Cognitive Functions in Diverse Populations
Participants completed an NP test battery of which a subset of two memory and two executive function tests were examined for this study, because these tests lacked race/ethnicity corrections as compared to other tests in the battery. Trained psychometrists following instructions from the respective manuals completed administration and scoring. Analyzed measures included Form A of the Hopkins Verbal Learning Test-Revised (Brandt & Benedict, 2001 ), Display A from the Brief Visual Memory Test-Revised (Benedict, 1997 ), the Stroop Color-Word Interference Test (Golden, 1978 ), and the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test-64 Computer Version (Heaton, Chelune, Talley, Kay, & Curtiss, 1993 ). We evaluated Total Recall across three learning trials and Delayed Recall for the HVLT-R and BVMT-R. Additionally, total numbers of correct items identified with the 45-second trials were analyzed for StroopWord Reading, Color Naming, and Color-Word formats. For the WCST, scores analyzed included Total Errors, Perseverative Errors, and Conceptual Level Responses.

Assessing Cognitive Function and Daily Living Activities
Serving as our outcome measurements, cognitive function was assessed face-to-face using four neuropsychological performance tests. More details regarding the tests are described in detail elsewhere [14 (link)]. The Stroop colour-word inference test (selective attention) and the letter-digit coding test (LDCT) (processing speed) were used to measure executive functioning [14 (link)]. The outcome parameter for the Stroop test was the total number of seconds to complete the third Stroop card. The outcome variable for the LDCT was the total number of correct entries in 60 s. Visual episodic memory was assessed with the 15-Picture Learning test (PLT) testing immediate and delayed recall. The main outcome was the accumulated number of recalled pictures over the three learning trials and the number of pictures recalled after 20 min. Functional status was assessed using the Barthel Index (BI) and instrumental activities of daily living (IADL). BI assesses self-care activities of daily living using 10 items (such as dressing) where a higher score indicates higher independence, with a maximum of 20 points [15 ]. Similarly, IADL measures activities of daily living using seven items with a maximum of 14 points, but in addition includes the interaction with the social and physical environment [16 (link)]. Likewise, here a higher score also higher functional capacity and independence. All outcomes were assessed at month 30 to maximise the availability of outcomes after the measurement of weight variability and weight change.

Comprehensive Neurocognitive Assessment Protocol
SNSB includes Korean version of the mini-mental state examination (K-MMSE),[6 (link)] CDR, Korean version of activities of daily living,[7 ] attention (digit span test), language (Boston naming test, tests for comprehension/repetition/fluency), visuospatial function (Rey Complex Figure Test), verbal and visual memory function (Seoul Verbal Learning Test and Rey complex figure test recall test), and frontal executive function (contrasting program, go-no-go, Controlled Oral Word Association Test, and Stroop test).[4 ] Age, sex, and education-specific norms based on normal controls were used to interpret the SNSB results. Scores ≥ 16th percentile, which were compared to–1 SD of the norm, were defined as normal. Severity of the cognitive complaints were assessed using a self-rated scale named cognitive failures questionnaire (total score 0–100, higher total score means more cognitive complaints).[8 (link)] Using a self-report questionnaire, “informant also report a cognitive decline of the participant,” “subjective concern about the cognitive decline,” and “symptom’s onset after 65 years of age” were assessed at baseline and follow-up evaluations.

In a quiet room with a trained study staff member, participants completed the Mattis Dementia Rating Scale [31 (link)]; the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Toolbox Cognition Battery [32 (link)] (including the optional Oral Symbol Digit Test); the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT) [33 (link)]; the Golden version of the Stroop Color Word Interference Test [34 ]; the Wechsler Memory Scale-revised Logical Memory I and II [35 ]; Trail-Making Test parts A and B [36 ]; and verbal fluency tests (FAS Test [assessment of phonemic fluency by requesting an individual to orally produce as many words as possible that begin with the letters F, A, and S within 1 minute] and animal naming) [37 ]. As executive and memory functions are most responsive to exercise in intervention trials with older adults [14 (link)], we created executive and memory composite scores by converting raw scores into z scores based on the entire sample, and then averaging across z scores for the following tests:
We picked these measures because they have previously been reported in the PA intervention literature and have been shown to change as a function of exercise [14 (link)].
