From the article:
- The above may well have played a role in the discovery of the Simon Effect, but it is not the "original experiment." The first Simon Effect paper is by Simon & Rudell in 1967 in J. Applied Psych. The stimuli were auditory words ("left" or "right") presented to the left or right ear. The task was to make the commanded response. What's interesting about this (to those who are really into the topic) is how the "original" Simon Effect experiment would now be classified as being an example of spatial Stroop, not Simon. But I digress... The key point of my comment is that Simon & Wolf is not the Simon Effect.[citation needed]
Wikipedia articles are not scientific papers. They do not have a definite author or set of authors. This means they cannot be written in the first person. Is there a tag for this? JIP | Talk 19:36, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
