Emotional Stroop Test in online and offline experimental procedures: the comparison of two different modes of conducting studies by Adrianna Wielgopolan, Maciej Pastwa, Dawid Żuk, Kamil K. Imbir

“…While conducting experiments via the Internet has become quite popular recently, there is still an ongoing debate regarding the reliability of data obtained using this method, especially for subtle manipulations and measurements susceptible to minor changes (e.g., reaction times). In this series of two experiments employing the emotional Stroop task (using emotional word stimuli differing in their valence, arousal, and subjective significance levels), we compared the reaction times of participants taking part in experiments either in the laboratory (Experiment 1) or online (Experiment 2). …”
