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.

Double light pulse resolution required longer inter-pulse time intervals of short duration of the pulse. The threshold of double pulse discrimination was not contingent upon the actual phase of cardiac or respiratory cycle.

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.

Reaction time and judgment of similarity or dissimilarity were studied in an experiment on two-dimensional probabilistic images (TDPIs) composed of rectangular black and white cells with statistical distribution of these elements 0.5-0.5. The subjects were asked to report verbally whether pairs of TDPIs, presented for 700 ms, appeared to them similar or not. Three sets of TDPIs differed as to the size of their "grain". Within the pairs "physically identical patterns", "statistically same patterns" or "different patterns" have been used. The statistically same patterns pairs reached the lowest (39 percent) judgment correctness. Reaction times for these pairs were generally longer than for others. In the case of identical patterns and statistically same patterns pairs the results indicated a general increase of the processing time as the size of grain had increased. There was a general tendency of reaction time shortening in successive sessions. These results suggest that correct discrimination of TDPIs does not depend primarily upon their grain.
