Response time distributions: some simple effects of factors selectively influencing mental processes.
When hypotheses about mental processing are tested with response times, inferences are often based on means, and occasionally on variance or skewness. Calculations on entire distributions of response times are more informative and can be conveniently carried out. Recently investigators have been updating procedures primarily based on means (such as additive factors tests) to procedures employin...
متن کاملA Simple System for Discovering Some Factors Influencing Non-Promotion
insistently asking school men why it should not be possible to apply to the business of education some of the same business processes of checking results, comparing the finished product with raw material, and disclosing leaks and wastes, that are applied to modern manufacturing. One result has been an attempt carried on during the past year, with the cooperation of Superintendent of Schools F. ...
متن کاملSome factors influencing interobserver variation in classifying simple pneumoconiosis.
Three experienced physician readers assessed the chest radiographs of 743 men from a coal mining community in West Virginia for the signs of simple pneumoconiosis, using the ILO U/C 1971 Classification of Radiographs of the Pneumoconioses. The number of films categorised by each reader as showing evidence of simple pneumoconiosis varied from 63 (8.5%) to 114 (15.3%) of the 743 films classified....
متن کاملFactors influencing the latency of simple reaction time
Simple reaction time (SRT), the minimal time needed to respond to a stimulus, is a basic measure of processing speed. SRTs were first measured by Francis Galton in the 19th century, who reported visual SRT latencies below 190 ms in young subjects. However, recent large-scale studies have reported substantially increased SRT latencies that differ markedly in different laboratories, in part due t...
متن کاملAge Factors Influencing Response-Response Compatibility in Reaction Time Tasks
Unlike stimulus-response compatibility, which has been explored for aging effects, the motor behavior issue of response-response (R-R) compatibility has not been addressed in the gerontological literature. R-R compatibility refers to the ease with which two responses can be prepared together either simultaneously or as choice alternatives. In the present study, young, middleaged, and elderly ad...
