Dewson, Michael R. J.; Whitely, John H. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1978
Eighteen second- and third-grade children were assigned to each of six conditions formed by the factorial combination of constant interresponse intervals of zero, four, and eight seconds, and self-blame vs other-blame instructional sets. (Author/SBH)

Hoosain, Rumjahn – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1980
In this study with bilingual Chinese college students, faster subjects in a word-judging task had lower Raven's Progressive Matrices scores. The distinction between test response time and actual mental speed as a correlate of intelligence is discussed. (Author/SJL)

Dashiell, William; Killian, Paul W., Jr. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1981
Eighteen college students solved addition problems using the Hutchings Low Fatigue Addition Algorithm, which requires a written record of running sums, and the standard algorithm, which does not. Students using the Hutchings algorithm had significantly higher reaction times to a tone, indicating that the Hutchings method requires less cognitive…

Surburg, Paul R. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1979
Ss' reaction time was measured from onset of a light stimulus until activiation of a microswitch by three types of buttons. Reaction times were significantly faster with the depressed panel mounted and hand-held buttons than with the released panel mounted button. (Author/DLS)

Stanley, Gordon; Watson, Mary – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1980
Ten dyslexic boys and 10 matched controls were asked to draw a person and write a composition. The two groups are compared on time spent on tasks, number of words written, and proportions of spelling and grammatical errors. (SJL)
