In Golden’s Stroop color and word test [33], 126 words were randomly arranged in 14 × 9 (rows x columns). The test consisted of three parts: part A involved naming color patches (red, blue, green, or yellow patches); part B involved reading color words printed in black (“red”, “blue”, “green”, or “yellow”); part C required naming the color that the words are printed in, which was incongruent with what the word says (e.g., the word “red” printed in blue). Each part was followed by a 60 s rest interval, with a “+“presented for 100 ms before the next part began. The participants were instructed to respond as quickly and as accurately as possible by pressing the corresponding button. Stimuli were presented one-by-one. Reaction time (RT) and errors were recorded. Golden’s Stroop interference score (IG) was derived using the formula C - [(A * B)/ (A + B)] [34]. A higher IG indicates more severe deficit of cognitive control. If participants were fatigued during the task, rest time was extended. All participants completed the test.
