Why does age affect reaction time?
It depends on the type of task you are doing. As you get older your muscle movement part of reaction time gets slower but your initial reaction time i.e. the brain acknowledging, the visual and deciding what to do is the same as younger individuals. Reaction time shortens from infancy into the late 20s. Then reaction time slowly increases from 50s and 60s. The Reaction time lengthens faster as the person gets into their 70s. Hope this helps :D
How does age effect reaction time and if so how?
yes because the later it is in the day the tierder you will be, eg: if you test someones reaction time in the morning it will be much faster than it is at night. so the later it is in the day the slower your reaction time will be. the earlier it is in the day the faster your reaction time is.
What is normal human reaction time?
the measure of how fast products are made in a reaction
Why might there be differences in reaction time between auditory and visual cues?
Simple reaction time studies show that RT to auditory stimuli is faster than visual stimuli. This is because the sensory process for light is more neurologically complex than for auditory cues. For light to be processed, it has a longer path to take in the brain, going all the way to the back of the brain to the occipital lobe and then back to the eyes. Auditory stimuli is processed in the ear then sent to the temporal lobe and back to the ear; a relatively shorter distance than the vision pathway. Reaction time to auditory cues in normal, healthy subjects is roughly 180 milliseconds for auditory cues and about 220 milliseconds.
