"Psychology - Concentration"

I was watching some program on tv yesterday, which featured a psychological test where people are shown words written in different colours. The words themselves are the name of colours, but don't correspond to the colour in which the word is written.

The test is to name the colour it's written in, ignoring what the word actually says. It's surprisingly difficult.


It's supposed to test your ability to concentrate on one thing without being distracted.

And after not doing very well, it's a skill I'd like to improve.

Does anyone know how I can do this?

I love you all.

try to imagine all of the words as a separate entity to the coloour they are written in. works for me.

100%, but it's actually tough.
