  2. Mental chronometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_chronometry

    Based on thousands of individuals, neuroticism was found to be a negative correlate (corrected r = -.12 with the withdrawal and volatility aspects) and the enthusiasm aspect of extraversion was found to be a positive correlate (corrected r = .21 with simple reaction time, .15 with choice reaction time, and .16 with choice movement time).

    Signs including Stop, Yield, No Turns, No Trucks, No Parking, No Stopping, Minimum Speed, Right Turn Only, Do Not Enter, Weight Limit, and Speed Limit are considered regulatory signs. Some have special shapes, such as the octagon for the Stop sign, the triangle for the Yield sign, and the crossbuck for railroad crossings.

  4. Stopping sight distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stopping_sight_distance

    Stopping sight distance is the distance traveled during the two phases of stopping a vehicle: perception-reaction time (PRT), and maneuver time (MT). [3] Perception-reaction time is the time it takes for a road user to realize that a reaction is needed due to a road condition, decide what maneuver is appropriate (in this case, stopping the ...

    In New Zealand, where traffic is on the left, when a road is given a green light from an all-direction stop, a red arrow can continue to display to turning traffic, holding traffic back while a pedestrian crossing on the side road is given a green signal (for left turns) or while oncoming traffic goes straight ahead and there is no permissive right turn allowed (for right turns).

    The matching between the physical symbols on a sign with the literal directions/information the sign is trying to convey. “The physical arrangement in space, relative to the position of information and directions.” [ 7 ] For example, a regulatory sign that informs a driver that they must turn right, should have an image of an arrow that ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eriksen_flanker_task

    Just as with the Eriksen Flanker Task, the response time and accuracy of congruent words is better than those of incongruent words. [8] The third task that is largely focused on is the Simon or spatial compatibility task. In this task, the stimulus, either a word, letter, or symbol, is shown on the right or left side of the computer screen.

  9. Braking distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braking_distance

    Braking distance refers to the distance a vehicle will travel from the point when its brakes are fully applied to when it comes to a complete stop. It is primarily affected by the original speed of the vehicle and the coefficient of friction between the tires and the road surface, [Note 1] and negligibly by the tires' rolling resistance and vehicle's air drag.
