STUDIES INTO INFORMATION PRESENTATION THROUGH NOVEL METHODS: INFORMATION TRANSFER THROUGH ELECTROCUTANEOUS STIMULATION.

Abstract

International Morse code reception, one dimensional tracking, and probalistic decision making with electrocutaneous signals were investigated. It was found that trained Morse operators can receive electrocutaneously presented Morse code after only brief training. After as much as 19 to 22 hours of electrocutaneous Morse reception training, the operator's performance with electrocutaneous signals had not reached their performance levels with auditory signals. No difference was found between electrocutaneous and visual, one-dimensional tracking or between probalistic decision making with the two modes of reception. (Author)
