Abstract

With the feeling that such an investigation had a direct bearing upon practical problems, the author studied especially the effect of a small audience upon the eye-hand coordination test of Koerth. In summarizing the results, it seemed "legitimate to conclude that there is an indication of superior eye-hand coordination among the subjects tested in a social situation. Statistically considered the degree of superiority is not sufficient to be very reliable. Yet a study of individual performances leaves no doubt as to the fact that the influence of the audience materially raises the score." (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)
