“…Prior research has indicated that EMF exposure might affect performance on relatively difficult tasks [see, e.g., Cook et al, 1992;Graham et al, 19941, but it does not seem to affect simple reaction time (RT) [see, e.g., Cook et al, 1992;Lyskov et al, 1993;Podd et al, 19951. In the present study, a two-alternative, forced-choice, visual duration-discrimination task with three levels of difficulty was used as the measure of performance, The purpose of using this particular task was twofold: 1) Previous research had shown that performance on a signal detection task was enhanced during EMF exposure significant results. Moreover, drawing conclusions from the research literature surveyed by Whittington and Podd is risky because of the adverse ratio of type I to type I1 errors created by low power levels.…”
