Young children are slower in naming the color of a meaningful picture than in naming the color of an abstract form (Stroop-like color–object interference). The current experiments tested an executive control account of this phenomenon. First, color–object interference was observed in 6- and 8-year-olds but not in 12- and 16-year-olds (Experiment 1). Second, meaningful pictures did not interfere in 5- to 7-year-olds’ manual sorting of objects on the basis of color (Experiment 2) or in their naming the number of colored objects in the display, that is, subitizing (Experiment 3). These findings provide support for the view that color–object interference results from the children’s immature inhibition of the prepotent but irrelevant task of object naming.
