abstract the effect of weight and force is one of the most important factors to organize and perform reaction time (rt) tasks. the elderly are involved in this variable when they gain weight. the present study was designed to examine the effect of limb weight gain on premotor and motor components of simple and discriminative reaction time in young and elderly men. subjects (16 young and 16 elde...

Spatial attention paradigms using auditory or tactile stimulation were used to explore neural and behavioral reorganization in early blind subjects. Although it is commonly assumed that blind subjects outperform sighted subjects in such tasks, the empirical data to confirm this remain controversial. Moreover, previous studies have often confounded factors of sensory acuity with those of attenti...

Background/Aim. Neurofeedback (NFB) training of sensorimotor rhythm (SMR) contributes to improving cognitive performance and increasing attention. SMR power is increased when a person focused task-oriented. The shorter reaction time (RT) the P300 auditory evoked potentials (AEPs) associated with better Hence, increase in after NFB should decrease RT task. aim study was examine ability healthy i...

Simple reaction time of hands and feet was studied in normal subjects (47 males, and 17 females) to visual and auditory stimuli using an electric circuit and recording points of stimulus and action on a fast moving kymograph. There are significant differences between reaction times of hands and feet, right side and left side, males and females and between auditory and visual reaction times (ART...
