An android app for experimenting with the Stroop Effect in the three primary colors of red, green and blue

◆What is the Stroop effect?

Stroop effect(from WIKIPEDIA in 2011.01.21) 
In psychology, the Stroop effect is a demonstration of the reaction time of a task. 

When the name of a color (e.g., “blue,” “green,” or “red”) is printed in a color not denoted by the name (e.g., the word “red” printed in blue ink instead of red ink), naming the color of the word takes longer and is more prone to errors than when the color of the ink matches the name of the color.
