SOME CONSTRUCT NETWORK EFFECTS OF MODIFYING THE STROOP COLOR AND WORDTEST

This study extended the work of Bohnen, Jolles, and Twijnstra (1992) b y examining the construct network effects of modifying the Stroop Colo r and Word Test to include a set-shifting component. College students were administered a number of neuropsychological measures and three ve rsions of the interference task in the SCWT. Scores obtained for each of the interference versions were correlated with scores on the other tests. Results indicated that the construct network of the SCWT is lar gely unaffected by these modifications. However, scores on the most mo dified version of the SCWT showed significantly greatest convergence w ith scores on TMT Part B as compared to correlations of other SCWT ver sions and neuropsychological tests.
