__**Question:**__ //**Which gender has the most reaction?**//

__**Background Information:**__ //**Reaction time-is the elapsed time between the presentation of a sensory stimulus and the subsequent behavioral** **response. RT is often used in experimental psychology to measure the duration of mental operations, known** **as mental chronometry. The behavioral response** **is often a button press but can also be an eye movement,** **a vocal response,** **or some other observable behavior.** **Simple reaction time is usually defined as the time required for an observer to detect the presence of a stimulus. For example, an observer might be asked to press a button as soon as a light or sound appears. Mean RT is approximately 180 to 200 milliseconds to detect visual stimuli, whereas for sound it is around 140-160 milliseconds.****Go/No-Go reaction time tasks require that the observer press a button when one stimulus type appears and withhold a response when other stimulus types appear. For example, the observer is to press the button when a red light appears and not respond when a green light appears.****Choice reaction time tasks require distinct responses for each possible class of stimulus. For example, the observer may be asked to press one button if a red light appears and a different button if a yellow light appears!**// http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction_time http://getyourwebsitehere.com/jswb/rttest01.html http://getyourwebsitehere.com/jswb/rttest01.html http://www.robrob8.com/games/reaction.htm http://reactiongame.net/

__**Hypothesis:**__ //**I think the female are going to react first!**// //**Because the females always reacts to something, if it's something scary or if someone surprises them! The males are always strong, so they don't really react as much.**//
