Abstract

Thirty Ss performed a 324-trial, subject-paced, two-signal, frequency-imbalaneed, disjunctive reaction time task. Responses on trials following the occurrence of the infrequent signal yielded longer RTs than responses on other trials. This effect is attributed to novelty produced "startle," and is different from series effects previously reported.
