TY - JOUR PY - 1982// TI - Alcohol and the cognitive aspects of choice reaction time JO - Psychopharmacology A1 - Landauer, A. A. A1 - Howat, P. A. SP - 296 EP - 297 VL - 78 IS - 3 N2 - In a repeated-measures experiment 18 men and 8 women were given ethanol which raised their mean blood alcohol concentration (BAC) to 0, 21, 50 and 73 mg/100 ml. Using the ERM apparatus (Schuhfried Instruments, Austria), which measures choice reaction time to a task with high cognitive content, it was found that both decision and reaction time increased as a function of rising BAC, and that movement time was not affected.
