Solution
The Stroop task involves naming the color of ink that a word is printed in. This is often used in psychology to measure cognitive flexibility and processing speed. The task becomes difficult when the color of the ink does not match the word. For example, the word "blue" printed in red ink. The participant is asked to name the color of the ink, not the word. So, the correct answer is d.
