Reaction time
For Ian Lowe's book, see
Reaction Time (book). Reaction time (RT) is the elapsed time between the presentation of a sensory stimulus and the subsequent behavioral response. RT is often used in
experimental psychology to measure the duration of mental operations, known as
mental chronometry. The behavioral response is often a button press but can also be an eye movement, a vocal response, or some other observable behavior.
