In 2001, psychologist Ian J. Deary published the first large-scale study of intelligence and reaction time in a representative population sample across a range of ages, finding a correlation between psychometric intelligence and simple reaction time of –0.31 and four-choice reaction time of –0.49.
Simple reaction time correlates with general cognitive ability, [4] and there is some evidence that the slope of responding on the Jensen box does as well. [2] Ian Deary and colleagues, in a population-based cohort study of 900 individuals, demonstrated correlations between IQ and simple choice RTs between –0.3 and –0.5. [ 4 ]
Given n equally probable choices, the average reaction time T required to choose among the choices is approximately: T = b ⋅ log 2 ( n + 1 ) {\displaystyle T=b\cdot \log _{2}(n+1)} where b is a constant that can be determined empirically by fitting a line to measured data.
A Jensen box. The Odd-Man-Out Reaction Time test (OMO RT) is a test of reaction times that uses Arthur Jensen's testing apparatus, the Jensen box.The box is normally used for measuring choice reaction times in which the participant in the experiment is tested on their ability to recognize which of the eight lights of the Jensen box is illuminated, as quickly as possible.

The Taylor Aggression Paradigm (TAP; also commonly referred to as the Competitive Reaction Time Task [1]) is a prominent, well-validated, laboratory analog measure of aggressive behavior in humans, predominantly utilized within the field of psychology.
Serial reaction time (SRT) is a commonly used parameter in the measurement of unconscious learning processes. [1] This parameter is operationalised through a SRT task, in which participants are asked to repeatedly respond to a fixed set of stimuli in which each cue signals that a particular response (i.e., button press) needs to be made.
