Hi Guys. I need your help with my school coursework!

I'm doing GCSE Stats at school and for our coursework we're doing a project on reaction times. We have to collect the data first hand and I need around 40 pieces of data, although 50 will be ideal.

What I need you to do is:

1. Take this test

2. Post your result, along with a few other pieces of data, in this format.

Average Reaction Time:
Gender:
Time Test Is Taken:
Age (if you don't feel comfortable, post an age bracket):


Please only do the test once, if you get a 'bad' time it doesn't matter, I only need it to stick on a graph. Doing the test too many times might distort the data because naturally, with practice you'll only get better :)

Thank you very much.

Trekkie, that could be an interesting variable to measure actually. At the moment, I'm just collecting data, like what you have put into the form. Next week I'm going to be making some hypotheses i.e. Girls can react quicker than boys, but boys react better in the evening than girls. Then I'll take the data, put it into various graphs and tables, analyse it and draw a conclusion from what I've found.

Definitely time of day would be a big factor. I just happen to be very alert at night, I doubt the result would be the same if I took it just after I woke up. :P

Winner! Wheres my prize.

What i especially like about this test is how it shows how quickly i lose interest. By #3 i was bored. I could totally do a 0.2 on every one but I'd need more colours to keep my attention.

lol 2 and 5 were higher i think because i had my finger like an inch above the mouse and just did a casual click XD Not paying a lot of attention for #5 too not trying to make excuses though just something I noticed... like for #2 it felt like a huge **** up but only 40 milliseconds longer idk how I even noticed that it was a long click XD
