Outline of a Stroop study implemented in ScriptingRT.
Excerpt from a ScriptingRT source code file implementing a Stroop paradigm. The tags shown set preferences (tags 1 and 2), create an introductory screen and an instruction screen (3–5) as well as one experimental block with two items (6–12). Tags 1 and 2 are general Apache Flex components. Tags 9 and 12 also embed a general Flex object, a <Text/> object (referenced in the Application tag with the prefix mx). All other tags are part of the ScriptingRT library (referenced in the Application tag).

Stroop effects and confidence intervals.
Estimated mean Stroop effect (average difference between response latencies in incongruent and congruent trials in ms) and their 95% confidence intervals, obtained in three studies with five samples. Studies 4 and 6 were run online, Study 5 in the laboratory. Software varied within participants in Studies 5, and between participants in Study 6.
