The lesson demonstrates the effect of learning and physiological processes on reaction times to a visual stimulus.
Students see two presentation schedules of visual LED stimulation. The Subject presses a pushbutton hand switch as quickly as possible after seeing the LED blink.
Students can then perform a statistical analysis of the results including: group mean, variance and standard deviation.
BSL Lessons are designed to allow at least four students to record and save data in a normal lab period (60-90 minutes). Typically, labs work most efficiently with three or more students working together at each BSL station.
