  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. Sensory cue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_cue

    An example of visual capture is the ventriloquism effect, that occurs when an individual's visual system locates the source of an auditory stimulus at a different position than where the auditory system locates it. When this occurs, the visual cues will override the auditory ones.

  5. Sensory memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_memory

    Iconic memory, for example, holds visual information for approximately 250 milliseconds. [7] The SM is made up of spatial or categorical stores of different kinds of information, each subject to different rates of information processing and decay. The visual sensory store has a relatively high capacity, with the ability to hold up to 12 items. [8]

  6. Two-alternative forced choice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-alternative_forced_choice

    At time zero, the evidence accumulated, x, is set equal to zero. At each time step, some evidence, A, is accumulated for one of the two possibilities in the 2AFC. A is positive if the correct response is represented by the upper threshold, and negative if the lower. In addition, a noise term, cdW, is added to represent noise in input.

  7. Continuous performance task - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_performance_task

    In the IVA-2 CPT, clients are told that they will see or hear the numbers "1" or "2" and that they are to click the mouse when presented with a visual or auditory "1" and inhibit clicking when presented with a "2". The task is made more challenging by the shifting of modalities between the visual and auditory stimuli.

  8. Serial reaction time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_reaction_time

    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.

  9. Psychological refractory period - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_refractory...

    Upon experimentation, participants were tested with a PRP paradigm in which the first task was an auditory task and the second task was a visual two choice task. Results indicated that there is an overall decrease in reaction time, exhibiting a psychological refractory period effect, however, there was no effect due to varying levels of ...
