Paced Auditory Serial-Addition Task: A Measure of Recovery from ConcussionPerceptual and Motor Skills - Tập 44 Số 2 - Trang 367-373 - 1977
Dorothy Gronwall
The need for a measure of severity of concussion apart from duration of post-traumatic amnesia is examined. The paced auditory serial-addition test, a measure of rate of information processing, is presented as a convenient test for estimating individual performance during recovery. Procedures for administration and control data are given, and the programme used for managing the rehabilita...... hiện toàn bộ
Critical Flicker Frequency under Monocular and Binocular ConditionsPerceptual and Motor Skills - Tập 72 Số 2 - Trang 383-386 - 1991
M. R. Ali, Taha Amir
Critical flicker frequency of 40 undergraduate students, 20 men and 20 women whose mean age was 19.3 yr., was measured under monocular and binocular viewing conditions, using the Lafayette Visual Perception Control with Display Unit. Half of the subjects received monocular treatment first and binocular treatment second, and the other half received the treatments in the reversed order. A 2...... hiện toàn bộ
Instructors' and Classroom Characteristics Associated with Exercise Enjoyment by FemalesPerceptual and Motor Skills - Tập 94 Số 2 - Trang 395-398 - 2002
Steven R. Wininger
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between exercise enjoyment and participant's perceptions of selected characteristics of the exercise instructor and exercise class. Women ( N = 296) attending aerobics classes at a university fitness center were surveyed. Analysis yielded significant correlations among exercise enjoyment and the four characteristics of instructor ...... hiện toàn bộ
Cognitive Sex Differences: Speed and Problem-Solving Strategies on Computerized Neuropsychological TasksPerceptual and Motor Skills - Tập 65 Số 3 - Trang 683-697 - 1987
Britt af Klinteberg, Sten Levander, Daisy Schalling
Skill, strategy, and laterality measures obtained through computerized neuropsychological tasks, a reaction time (RT) test, and a visuospatial problem-solving test, the Perceptual Maze Test, were analyzed in relation to sex and handedness of 56 high-school students. Boys were significantly faster than girls on most RT subtasks (including a response-inhibition task) and made more two-choic...... hiện toàn bộ
Relationship of Acoustic Parameters and Perceptual Ratings of Esophageal SpeechPerceptual and Motor Skills - Tập 40 Số 1 - Trang 63-68 - 1975
Maynard D. Filter, Melvin Hyman
For 10 male and 10 female esophageal speakers selected acoustic and perceptual dimensions of esophageal speech were investigated to determine the intercorrelations of the following measures: intelligibility, articulation, rate, fundamental frequency, mean relative intensity, and effectiveness. Results indicate that only articulation and effectiveness were significantly correlated with int...... hiện toàn bộ
Stuttering and Oral StereognosisPerceptual and Motor Skills - Tập 53 Số 1 - Trang 155-162 - 1981
Richard R. Martin, Barbara A. Lawrence, Samuel K. Haroldson, Donna Gunderson
Two experiments were conducted to investigate oral stereognostic performance of stutterers. In Exp. I, stutterers and controls responded “same”—“different” to two oral forms placed successively on their tongues. In Exp. II, stutterers and controls underwent two procedures. For half the items, the task was the same as in Exp. I; for the other half, subjects were presented a single form and...... hiện toàn bộ
Relations between Attentional and Intentional Neural SystemsPerceptual and Motor Skills - Tập 81 Số 3 - Trang 947-951 - 1995
Gianpaolo Basso, Paolo Nichelli
This study explored whether preparing an arm movement influences detection of a visual stimulus We cued subjects to respond with either a rightward or a leftward movement to the appearance of a stimulus located either in the centre, in the left, or in the right visual field. Programming a movement toward a lateral direction enhanced visual attention at that side. Rightward movements were ...... hiện toàn bộ
