The Slowing of visual processing by hypoxia / B. Fowler, J. Banner and J. Pogue
Sumario: An additive factors method experiment was undertaken to determine whether the preprocessing and identification stages of information processing are implicated in the slowing of reaction time by hypoxia. The leads to the possibility that hypoxia slowed the identification stage indirectly rather than directly, although the latter hypothesis cannot be ruled out entirely at present. It is argued that visual slowing probably plays an important role in the disruption of perceptual-motor tasks by hypoxia
