The differences in actions of the potential “rescuers” could be explained by the differences in the two scenarios. In the scenario where the British climber was left to die, there are several reasons why this could have happened.

It was noted that dozens of different

Evaluating some possible Causes of the Stroop Effect Matt Sheehan, M.S. Carolyn Rude-Parkins, Ph.D. University of Louisville November, 2007 Introduction The words blue, green, and yellow are words known to all as colors.

Case 1 THE FLYNN EFFECT Given that a substantial amount of intellectual ability (up to 80 percent) is inherited, it might surprise you to learn that intelligence test scores are rising. In fact, scores have risen so dramatically that today's great-grandparents seem mentally deficient by comparison. First, let's review the evidence for rising test scores. Then, we'll review explanations for the results. On an IQ scale where 100 is the average, scores have been rising about 3 points per
