Best Answer

-Fractionated reaction time is divided into two components:

·

Premotor Reaction time, which is the onset of the stimulus to the onset of the muscle activation. This involves EMG. Pre motor RT is providing someone with an index that shows the processing time to plan and program a response.

·

Motor RT measures the time that movement time begins. It reflects an electro mechanical delay that is associated with the lag muscle to overcome inertia of the limb.

How does age effect reaction time and if so how?

yes because the later it is in the day the tierder you will be, eg: if you test someones reaction time in the morning it will be much faster than it is at night. so the later it is in the day the slower your reaction time will be. the earlier it is in the day the faster your reaction time is.
