Abstract

The goal of the Performance Evaluation Tests for Environmental Research (PETER) Program was to identify a set of measures of human cognitive, perceptual, and motor capabilities for use in the study of environmental and other time-course effects. Tasks were evaluated as suitable for repeated measures applications when their intertrial means, variances and correlations were well-behaved under constant baseline conditions. This report provides an evaluation of 112 test measures studied in the program. They are categorized into four groups based upon joint consideration of task stability and task definition. Thirty test measures were categorized as Good, 15 as Good-But-Redundant, 35 as Ugly (flawed), and 32 as Bad.
