Objective: This aim of this study was to assessment of attention bias in the cognitive processing of neutral and emotional words, using Stroop's semantic test on students.
Method: 50 students from Tabriz University were selected randomly and in addition to the demographic information, they responded to the Stroop's semantic test. Data analysis was done using descriptive statistics, independent groups T-test and paired groups T-test. Results: The mean percentages of correct responses in the sample (boys and girls) in emotional words were lower than neutral words. The mean percentage of incorrect responses in the sample in neutral and emotional words was not significant. There were significant differences in neutral and emotional words between the mean percentages of without respondent in the sample in 0/001. There were significant differences in mean percentages of responses in the sample between the neutral and emotional words in 0/005. On the one hand, there were not significant differences in mean percentages of correct responses in boys in neutral and emotional words but for the girls; there were significant differences in0/005. For both sex, there were significant differences in mean response time between neutral and emotional words in 0/001.
