Pupil size variations correlate with physical effort perception
It has long been established that the pupil diameter increases during mental activities in proportion to the difficulty of the task at hand. However, it is still unclear whether this relationship between the pupil size and effort applies also to physical effort. In order to address this issue, we asked healthy volunteers to perform a power grip task, at varied intensity, while evaluating their ...
متن کاملWhen Viewing Variations in Paintings by Mondrian, Aesthetic Preferences Correlate With Pupil Size
Observers consciously prefer Mondrian’s paintings in their original orientation compared with a rotated position—the “oblique effect” (Latto, Brain, & Kelly, 2000). However, this finding’s premise, that all vertical–horizontal orientations of the thick black lines in Mondrian’s oeuvre are preferred, overlooks the fact that the overall balance of these images is also altered when they are reorie...
متن کاملPupil size in diabetes.
Sympathetic function was studied in 101 diabetic children and 102 age and sex matched control children, as part of a longitudinal study of the evolution of microvascular disease in the population of diabetic children and adolescents in Avon County. The median (range) age of the diabetic population was 13.5 (6.0-17.2) years, the duration of diabetes was 4.0 (0.4-13.9) years, and glycated haemogl...
متن کاملSleep deprivation increases the costs of attentional effort: Performance, preference and pupil size
Sleep deprivation (SD) consistently degrades performance in tasks requiring sustained attention, resulting in slower and more variable response times that worsen with time-on-task. Loss of motivation to exert effort may exacerbate performance degradation during SD. To test this, we evaluated sustained performance on a vigilance task, combining this with an effort-based decision-making task and ...
متن کاملPupil Size and Mental Load
This experiment explores whether the size of human pupil dilation is a measure that can discriminate between easier and harder intellectual tasks undertaken by the participant when information is displayed on a computer monitor. While it has been previously found that a participant’s pupil dilation will be larger during harder intellectual tasks, these experiments have not generally been conduc...
