Eye Colour

Evidence analysed based on reaction time has contributed to the development of cognitive models of human information processing. Essential to the consideration of possible variables to be controlled when designing experimental work on cognitively related issues are variables such as the subjects' age, sex, or education. Barely a handful of studies have ever taken eye colour seriously as a variable to be controlled when exploring cognitively related issues. Very few researchers have considered the possibility that a person's eye colour might influence reaction time. The question is whether eye colour should be taken seriously when designing experimental work in cognitive psychology. In this study we found significant differences in choice reaction time using the McCarthy and Donchin (1981) paradigm, the dark-eyed subjects being faster than the light-eyed. Implications of the findings are discussed.

The Relationship

The present report is of the relationship between digit symbol performance in schizophrenia and measures derived from a visual choice reaction-time task. The ability to ignore irrelevant visual stimuli was most closely related to digit symbol performance, other measures adding little to the predicted variance.

Colour Patterns

The primary goal of the study was to construct a computerised information-processing test battery to measure choice reaction time for up to and including six bits of information, to measure discrimination reaction time with regard to colour patterns and form patterns, to measure rate of information processing with regard to perceptual stimuli and conceptual reasoning, and to develop a suitable scoring system for the respective tests. The battery of tests was applied to 58 pilots. Opsomming Die hoofdoel van die studie was om ‘n gerekenariseerde inligtingverwerkingstoets-battery te konstrueer om keusereaksietyd tot en met ses bis inligting te meet, om diskriminasie-reaksietyd ten opsigte van kleurpatrone en vormpatrone te meet, om tempo van inligtingverwerking ten opsigte van perseptuele stimuli en konseptuele redenering te meet en om ‘n gepaste nasienstelsel vir die onderskeie toetse te ontwikkel. Die battery toetse is op 58 vlieëniers toegepas
