EFFECTS OF ELECTROCUTANEOUS READY-SIGNAL VARIATION ON VISUAL REACTION-TIME

Abstract

Two ready-signal variables (direction of change in electrocutaneous stimulation and method of presentation: 'trace' or 'delay') were combined in a 2 x 2 x Ss design. Neither variable produced a significant main effect but yielded a highly significant interaction. Results were interpreted in terms of arousal, inter-sensory, and conditioning explanations of ready-signal effects.
