A Turbo Pascal program for testing eye-hand coordination by means of tracing.

A Turbo Pascal program for eye-hand coordination testing using standard PC XT/AT mouse is presented. The contour segments of three simple figures (square, circle and triangle) are chosen as tracing trajectories. Tracing performance expressed in root mean squared (RMS) and modulus mean error (MME) measures are calculated and used, together with tracing time for evaluation of eye hand coordination ability.

Art

Cardiac frequency, phase and errors in one-dimensional sensorimotor tracking.

One dimensional manual tracking was investigated in relation to actual heart rate and phase of cardiac cycle. Higher heart rate was combined with increased tracking error incidence and decreased successful tracking time (light spot inside target). Error incidence was time-locked with respect to the phase of cardiac cycle.

Electrocardiography

Alpha detection: some comments on Hardt and Kamiya, "Conflicting results in EEG alpha feedback studies".

The problem of defining EEG alpha activity, and of detecting and measuring it, is outlined. Some advantages of a threshold method are presented and compared with an amplitude-integration method. Characteristics of percent-time scoring, based upon observable alpha spindles in the waking EEG, are discussed. A probability distribution of percent-time alpha as a function of detection threshold is derived and compared with empirical data.

Action Potentials

Computer programs suitable for processing behavioral data characterized by alternation of two states.

A program system is described which is suitable for processing behavioral and psychophysiological data characterized by alternation of two states (the transition between which is instantaneous). It is adapted for a LINC D.E.C. computer and is composed of a control program and several system programs computing different statistics and performing necessary input and output operations with the data.
