Complexity of central processing in simple and choice multilimb reaction-time tasks. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The default mode of the motor system is a coupling between limbs. However, in some movements, a decoupling is required and thus calls for selection and facilitation/inhibition processes.

The Effect of Limb Weight Gain on Premotor and Motor Components of Simple and Discriminative Reaction Time in Young and Elderly Men [PDF]

open access: yesرشد و یادگیری حرکتی ورزشی, 2015
The effect of weight and force is one of the most important factors to organize and perform reaction time (RT) tasks. The elderly are involved in this variable when they gain weight.

Audio–visual Reaction Time in Different Age Groups in Normal Individuals: A Cross-sectional Study

open access: yesJournal of the Scientific Society
Background: Reaction time (RT) is a simple yet sensitive measure of sensorimotor and cognitive processing. As life expectancy increases, understanding age-related changes in RT is essential to assess the functional implications of aging on everyday tasks

Effect of glare on simple reaction time

open access: yesJournal of the Optical Society of America A, 2008
We systematized the study of the effect of glare on reaction time (RT), for visual conditions similar to the ones found during night driving: Mesopic range of adaptation (0.14 cd/m2), glare levels of the order of those produced by car headlights (E(G)=15, 60 lx), suprathreshold luminance contrasts, and a variety of spatial frequencies covering the ...

Frequency-Specific Effects of Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation on Response-Time Performance in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
Background: Galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) is being increasingly explored as a non-invasive brain stimulation technique to treat symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD).

Computational models of the Posner simple and choice reaction time tasks

open access: yesFrontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2015
The landmark experiments by Posner in the late 1970s have shown thatreaction time (RT) is faster when the stimulus appears in an expectedlocation, as indicated by a cue; since then, the so-called Posnertask has been considered a ``gold standard'' test of

Tennis Attack: An Exergame Utilizing a Natural User Interface to Measure and Improve the Simple Reaction Time

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The present article demonstrates the process of designing, developing, implementing, and evaluating an active video game or exergame. The main goal of our proposed exergame is to develop the simple reaction time of players.

Gap effect and reaction time distribution: simple vs choice manual responses

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1998
It is well known that saccadic reaction times (SRT) are reduced when the target is preceded by the offset of the fixation point (FP) - the gap effect. Some authors have proposed that the FP offset also allows the saccadic system to generate a separate ...

An In-depth Analysis of Multisensory Reaction Time Disparities between Yogic and Non-Yogic Practitioners

open access: yesPhysical Education Theory and Methodology
Background. Auditory and visual reaction time refers to the duration between the introduction of a sound or light and the onset of a response. It is an important aspect of human behaviour, influencing performance in various activities ranging from daily ...

Wavelength effects on simple reaction time [PDF]

open access: yesPerception & Psychophysics, 1977
Simple reaction time was measured to spectral lights matched photometrically in luminance. When these lights were presented on a dimmer achromatic background, reaction time did not vary as a function of wavelength. Moreover, reaction times to white and chromatic lights were the same.
