Influence of separate and mixed experimental designs on reaction times to two simple visual stimuli
Testing contexts have been shown to critically influence experimental results in psychophysical studies. One of these contexts that show important modulation of the behavioral effects of different stimulatory conditions is the separate (blocked) or mixed presentation of these stimulatory conditions. The study presents evidence that the apparent discriminabilities of two target stimuli can chang...
متن کاملThe Effect of Listening to Techno Music on Reaction times to Visual Stimuli
The aim of the research was to establish the infl uence of techno music on the reaction times of participants in the research. Our hypothesis was that stimulating music, such as techno, would shorten the participants’ reaction time to visual stimuli while, without music, the reaction time would be longer. To defi ne the reaction time to expected light stimuli we used a special apparatus for mea...
متن کاملEffect of foveal tritanopia on reaction times to chromatic stimuli.
To investigate the effect of foveal inhomogeneities on sensitivity to chromatic stimuli, we measured simple reaction times (RTs) and detection thresholds to temporally and spatially blurred isoluminant stimuli at retinal eccentricities from 0 deg to 8 deg. Three color-normal subjects participated. Contrast gain was derived from the slope of the RT versus contrast function. With a Gaussian spati...
متن کاملComparison between Auditory and Visual Simple Reaction Times
Objective: The purpose of this study was to find out whether the simple reaction time was faster for auditory or visual stimulus and the factors responsible for improving the performance of the athlete. Methodology: 14 subjects were assigned randomly into groups consisting of 2 members. Both the members from each group performed both the visual and auditory tests. The tests were taken from the ...
متن کاملAn fMRI study of human visual cortex in response to spatiotemporal properties of visual stimuli
ABSTRACT Background: The brain response to temporal frequencies (TF) has been already reported, but with no study reported for different TF with respect to various spatial frequencies (SF). Materials and Methods: fMRI was performed by 1.5T GE-system in 14 volunteers during checkerboard, with TFs of 4, 6, 8 and 10Hz in low and high SFs of 0.5 and 8cpd. Results: Average percentage BOLD signa...
