  2. Mental chronometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_chronometry

    [15] [16] Similarly, increasing the duration of a stimulus available in a reaction time task was found to produce slightly faster reaction times to visual [15] and auditory stimuli, [17] though these effects tend to be small and are largely consequent of the sensitivity to sensory receptors. [8]

  3. Stimulus–response compatibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stimulus–response...

    Stimulus–response (S–R) compatibility is the degree to which a person's perception of the world is compatible with the required action. S–R compatibility has been described as the "naturalness" of the association between a stimulus and its response, such as a left-oriented stimulus requiring a response from the left side of the body.

  4. Startle response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Startle_response

    Usually the onset of the startle response is a startle reflex reaction. The startle reflex is a brainstem reflectory reaction (reflex) that serves to protect vulnerable parts, such as the back of the neck (whole-body startle) and the eyes (eyeblink) and facilitates escape from sudden stimuli. It is found across many different species ...

  5. Multisensory integration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multisensory_integration

    It's a spatially congruent example by combining visual and auditory stimuli. On the other hand, the sound and the pictures of a TV program would be integrated as structurally congruent by combining visual and auditory stimuli. However, if the sound and the pictures did not meaningfully fit, we would segregate the two stimuli.

  6. Two-streams hypothesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-streams_hypothesis

    Goodale and Milner [2] amassed an array of anatomical, neuropsychological, electrophysiological, and behavioural evidence for their model. According to their data, the ventral 'perceptual' stream computes a detailed map of the world from visual input, which can then be used for cognitive operations, and the dorsal 'action' stream transforms incoming visual information to the requisite ...

  7. Continuous performance task - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_performance_task

    Separate tests are administered for visual vs. auditory modes. In the visual version, the T.O.V.A. uses geometric shapes so that language and reading levels do not play a part in the scoring. The T.O.V.A. has two sections, similar to the high and low demand sections discussed above for the IVA.

  9. Human processor model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_processor_model

    The human processor model uses the cognitive, perceptual, and motor processors along with the visual image, working memory, and long term memory storages. A diagram is shown below. Each processor has a cycle time and each memory has a decay time. These values are also included below.
