TY - JOUR PY - 2021// TI - A response to Basner et al. (2021): "Response speed measurements on the psychomotor vigilance task: how precise is precise enough?" JO - Sleep A1 - Snipes, Sophia A1 - Huber, Reto A1 - Karlen, Walter SP - ePub EP - ePub VL - ePub IS - ePub N2 - Dear Editor, The recent article by Basner et al. (2021), Response speed measurements on the psychomotor vigilance test: how precise is precise enough? [1] raises important issues regarding recording system biases when conducting the psychomotor vigilance test (PVT). Their aim was to establish to what extent system latency bias and variability would influence common outcome variables. To do this, they took previously recorded 10-minute PVT data from healthy adults after either total sleep deprivation or partial sleep deprivation and introduced increasing levels of bias and variability to the recorded response times (RT). They evaluated at what point the outcome measures of speed...
