An Alternating Serial Reaction Time Task by Howard et al (2004) using 4-choice responding.
An Alternating Serial Reaction Time Task by Howard et al (2004) using 4-choice responding.
The linguistic SRT task combines a serial reaction time task with artificial grammar learning (Misyak et al, 2010) and has been used as a measure of procedural memory in language learning (Quam et al, 2018).
A task by Kaufman et al (2010) in which participants are presented sequences of 4 boxes on a horizontal line and must press a spatially corresponding key.
The Serial Reaction Time Task measuring implicit learning as originally developed by Nissen & Bullemer (1987).
