Factors Effecting Choice Reaction Time
Factors Effecting Choice Reaction Time
- While not directly studied, most of the effects for simple reaction time are expected to generalize to choice reaction time.
- The Effects of Number of Alternatives
- Hick found reaction time increased as the number of alternatives increased. (finger press to light): Hick's Law
- Mowbray found reaction time did not increase as the number of alternative increased.
- These conflicting results may be resolved in the next two findings.
