Abstract: This study investigated the age differences of Stroop and reverse Stroop effect.Results showed that:The factor of age is significant in the false rate.And the false rate of middle school students is higher than the high school ones and undergraduates,but there is no difference in the later two; In addition,whether in color task or in word task,the reaction time and false rate of the incongruent condition are both higher than the congruent condition,that is,the Stroop effect and reverse Stroop effect are respectively found in both tasks.

Key words: Stroop effect, reverse Stroop effect, age
