Unit 3 Lesson: Using Reaction Time and Mixed Models
This lesson will introduce some concepts related to empirical studies and statistical evaluation. The focus is on evaluating a specified model with... -
Tradeoffs of estimating reaction time with absolute and relative thresholds
Measuring the duration of cognitive processing with reaction time is fundamental to several subfields of psychology. Many methods exist for...

Effect of additional tasks on the reaction time of braking responses in simulated car driving: beyond the PRP effect
The presentation of one task increases the reaction time on a subsequent task, if stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA) between tasks is short. This...
-
Combining reaction-time distributions to conserve shape
To improve the estimate of the shape of a reaction-time distribution, it is sometimes desirable to combine several samples, drawn from different...

How Many Participants? How Many Trials? Maximizing the Power of Reaction Time Studies
Due to limitations in the resources available for carrying out reaction time (RT) experiments, researchers often have to choose between testing...

Technoference Interacts with Parenting Practices to Predict Children’s Attentional Control Indexed by Intraindividual Reaction Time Variability
Parenting practices and technoference are associated with the development of children’s attentional control. Intraindividual reaction time...

Diagnosing eyewitness identifications with reaction time-based concealed information test: the effect of observation time
Eyewitness identification procedures rely heavily on explicit identification from lineups. Lineups have been criticized because they have a...

Family Functioning and Intraindividual Reaction Time Variability Interactively Predict Children’s Externalizing Problems
Family functioning including family adaptability and family cohesion, and intraindividual reaction time variability (IIV) which serves as an index of...

The Viewing Reaction Time as a Diagnostic Tool of Pedohebephilia in the Dunkelfeld
Diagnosing pedohebephilia is fraught with obstacles given the tabooed nature of this sexual preference. The viewing reaction time effect (VRT)...

Estimating the proportions and latencies of reaction time outliers: A pooling method and case study of lexical decision tasks
A methodological problem in most reaction time (RT) studies is that some measured RTs may be outliers—that is, they may be very fast or very slow for...

The effect of staircase stop** accuracy and testing environment on stop-signal reaction time
Abstract
The stop-signal task is widely used in experimental psychology and cognitive neuroscience research, as well as neuropsychological and...

The complexity of measuring reliability in learning tasks: An illustration using the Alternating Serial Reaction Time Task
Despite the fact that reliability estimation is crucial for robust inference, it is underutilized in neuroscience and cognitive psychology....

Reaction Time “Mismatch Costs” Change with the Likelihood of Stimulus–Response Compatibility
Dyadic interactions require dynamic correspondence between one’s own movements and those of the other agent. This map** is largely viewed as...

Home safety hero: testing reaction time differences among teen mothers for single versus multiple game play
The purpose of this pilot study was to examine Home Safety Hero an innovative serious game simulation designed to train parents on home safety risks...

Day versus night consolidation of implicit sequence learning using manual and oculomotor activation versions of the serial reaction time task: reaction time and anticipation measures
This study presents two experiments that explored consolidation of implicit sequence learning based on two dependent variables—reaction time (RT) and...
-
Articulatory suppression during instruction encoding impedes performance in choice reaction time tasks
Theories of instruction following assume that language contributes to our ability to understand and implement instructions. The two experiments...

Diagnosing eyewitness identifications with reaction time‑based Concealed Information Test: the effect of viewpoint congruency between test and encoding
Mistaken eyewitness identifications continue to be a major contributor to miscarriages of justice. Previous experiments have suggested that implicit...

Behavioral impulse and time pressure jointly influence intentional inhibition: evidence from the Free Two-Choice Oddball task
Intentional inhibition is a crucial component of self-regulation, yet it is under-researched, because it is difficult to study without external...

Mental association of time and valence
Five experiments investigated the association between time and valence. In the first experiment, participants classified temporal expressions (e.g.,...

The benefit of assessing implicit sequence learning in pianists with an eye-tracked serial reaction time task
Playing piano professionally has been shown to benefit implicit motor sequence learning. The aim of the current study was to determine whether this...
