Description
Summary:Reports three studies that were carried out between the years 1918 and 1919, on reaction time. In the first study, Angell reported a continuation of work with trigger reaction key; on the relation between length and strength of pull, and other factors entering the reactions. Macht, Issacs and Greenberg studied the effects of antipyretics on reaction time. Titchener studied the reactions of a S who, in a previous experiment, was unable to mention the required constancy of attitude and whose times were long and variable even after much practice.
