Interpreting Linked Psychomotor Performance Scores
Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 2013Given that equating/linking applications are now appearing in kinesiology literature, this article provides an overview of the different types of linked test scores: equated, concordant, and predicted. It also addresses the different types of evidence required to determine whether the scores from two different field tests (measuring the same construct)

Antidepressants, alcohol and psychomotor performance
Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica, 1990The acute psychomotor effects of moclobemide, a reversible inhibitor of MAO‐A antidepressant (100 and 300 mg) compared with amitriptyline (25 and 75 mg) showed that moclobemide caused no significant impairment in contrast with amitriptyline, which caused significant impairment at both doses. Two other studies are reviewed.

Psychomotor performance in presenile dementia
Psychological Medicine, 1974SYNOPSISThe psychomotor performance of patients with presenile dementia was investigated in two experiments. It was found that motor retardation in dementia was due more to impaired effector processes rather than slowness in deciding when and where to move.

Electroencephalographic Studies of Skilled Psychomotor Performance
Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2004Measurements based on the EEG have featured prominently in shaping present-day concepts of the neurocognitive aspects of skilled performance. The techniques include measurements of spectral power, interelectrode coherence, event-related potential components such as the P300, slow potentials, and the method of cognitive inference. The advantages offered

Handedness and Psychomotor Performance
A I I E Transactions, 1970Abstract The results of three independent experiments with five diversified tasks and a total of 106 naive nonindustrial subjects tend to support the hypothesis that right-handed subjects are more likely to have a higher performance and to improve more on psychomotor tasks than do left-handed subjects.

Psychomotor performance after short-term anaesthesia
European Journal of Anaesthesiology, 2002The aim was to examine the immediate effects of short-term anaesthesia on the different components of psychomotor performance of the upper extremity and cognitive functions, and to find out if there were any differences in the sensitivities of the different tests.

Effects of Load-Carrying on Psychomotor Performance
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1966Previous studies have indicated that performance after load-carrying may be related to psychological fatigue rather than physiological impairment. This study measured performance on a battery of psychomotor tests and subjective fatigue ratings after 10 5s carried loads of 14 and 34 lb. over a 2-mile test course.

Independent Living and Psychomotor Performance
Canadian Journal on Aging / La Revue canadienne du vieillissement, 1992AbstractWhile the majority of seniors live outside of institutions, many live in seniors apartment buildings rather than in single family dwellings. MacPherson (1983) suggested that not maintaining an independent living style may have some negative consequences for seniors. The question asked was whether differences in lifestyle arising from the nature

Antidepressant Drugs and Psychomotor Performance
Neuropsychobiology, 1995Nearly all antidepressants are tested psychometrically in order to detect side effects of these drugs. Based on a review of the relevant published data on critical flicker fusion frequency measurements, simple reaction time, complex reaction time, tracking, tapping, and car driving simulation measurements, the underlying principles of the different ...

Experimenter Expectancy Effects in Psychomotor Performance
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1968This study investigated the effects upon psychomotor behavior of (a) student Es' expectancies about Ss performance created by the investigator, (b) information given those Es by the investigator about whether Ss were performing as expected, and (c) the cautioning of Es against bias. 36 undergraduate males served as Es and 72 undergraduate females were
