Measuring apparatus and method for measuring the time and spatial timing correction capability in motor response

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and device for measuring temporal/spacial timing correction capability of a subject by predicting (foreseeing) execution timing in exercise reaction in a ball game etc. and at the same time considering temporal/spacial factors being important factors to be corrected.;SOLUTION: The device includes a plurality of running courses A, B1, and B2 respectively having timing points TP₁ to TP₃ of targeted stimulations. The target stimulation is moved from the start point SP of one running course A toward the timing point on the goal side. Halfway through the movement, a control means 5 changes the moving speed of the target stimulation and the movement running course of the target stimulation. At the timing when the target stimulation reaches one of the timing points, the subject performs reaction operation using a reaction operation means 4. Then, a measuring means 16 measures the difference between a timing time when the target stimulation reaches the timing point and a timing time when the subject operates the reaction operation means 4 at the timing when the target stimulation reaches the timing points, and a display means 6 displays a reaction time.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
