The reverse affect test: a new interference task.

R M Gardner

    Perceptual and Motor Skills
    |April 1, 1985
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    A novel interference test for adults showed that inappropriate affective word pairs significantly hinder reading speed and accuracy. This cognitive interference task also increased performance variability.
