The study also found that older participants compensated for their shortage of speed with strategy and efficiency. jacqueline_tank https://padlet.com/jacqueline_tank/oyxlfekjd15f/wish/189569100 2017-09-21 00:06:13 UTC https://padlet.com/jacqueline_tank/oyxlfekjd15f/wish/189569100 Driving is a type of choice reaction test. Drivers must evaluate various stimuli and make different decisions depending on individual circumstances. Older drivers showed a markedly increased reaction time on simulated driving tests, a difference that appears to be due to cognitive factors rather than reduced mobility. jacqueline_tank https://padlet.com/jacqueline_tank/oyxlfekjd15f/wish/189569470 2017-09-21 00:09:55 UTC https://padlet.com/jacqueline_tank/oyxlfekjd15f/wish/189569470 Older drivers can take steps to compensate for their longer reaction times. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration advises elderly drivers to leave larger following distances between cars, to avoid driving at night, to make left turns at stoplights with turn arrows and to have a companion along to serve as an extra pair of eyes. jacqueline_tank https://padlet.com/jacqueline_tank/oyxlfekjd15f/wish/189569505 2017-09-21 00:10:16 UTC https://padlet.com/jacqueline_tank/oyxlfekjd15f/wish/189569505 A number of factors have been shown to affect reaction times. Your reaction time will be fastest when you are interested in an activity without feeling stressed. Being too relaxed or too tense will increase those times. Exercise seems to cause faster reactions during the exercise period but regular exercise doesn't seem to affect reaction times in other situations. jacqueline_tank https://padlet.com/jacqueline_tank/oyxlfekjd15f/wish/189569755 2017-09-21 00:12:20 UTC https://padlet.com/jacqueline_tank/oyxlfekjd15f/wish/189569755 If you are reacting to something that could affect your survival or health, you will react faster. People respond more rapidly to unpleasant food odors, which could indicate spoilage, than they do to pleasant odors. Studies of exercise and reaction time have shown mixed results. jacqueline_tank https://padlet.com/jacqueline_tank/oyxlfekjd15f/wish/189569815 2017-09-21 00:12:47 UTC https://padlet.com/jacqueline_tank/oyxlfekjd15f/wish/189569815
