Older Adults With Hearing Loss Have Reductions in Visual, Motor and Attentional Functioning
Evidence from epidemiological, laboratory and clinical research suggests a link between age-related auditory declines and domain-general cognitive declines.

Visual onset expands subjective time [PDF]
We report a distortion of subjective time perception in which the duration of a first interval is perceived to be longer than the succeeding interval of the same duration. The amount of time expansion depends on the onset type defining the first interval.

Safety implications of a pedestrian protection system - the driver's point of view [PDF]
Pedestrians can sustain fatal injuries, even in low-speed collisions. Active pedestrian protection systems, such as an Active Bonnet, have been shown to mitigate the outcome of a collision.

Black tea enhances alertness fifteen minutes after consumption
Background: Although there is an abundance of research regarding the enhancement of psychomotor function following the ingestion of coffee and pure caffeine, the actions of black tea on the reaction time and other tests of psychomotor function have not ...

Does visual reaction time change with gender?
Background: The reaction time (RT) of an organism refers to how quickly it reacts to a stimuli. The rate at which the central nervous system analyses sensory data and then executes it as a motor response is measured by RT. The human body responds to different sensory modalities in different ways and at different rates.

Reaction time distributions constrain models of visual search
Many experiments have investigated visual search for simple stimuli like colored bars or alphanumeric characters. When eye movements are not a limiting factor, these tasks tend to produce roughly linear functions relating reaction time (RT) to the number of items in the display (set size).

Primary visual cortex as a saliency map: parameter-free prediction of behavior from V1 physiology
It has been hypothesized that neural activities in the primary visual cortex (V1) represent a saliency map of the visual field to exogenously guide attention. This hypothesis has so far provided only qualitative predictions and their confirmations.
