The Effects of hyperbaric air in combination with ethyl alcohol and dextroamphetamine on serial choice-reaction time / Kevin Hamilton, Barry Fowler and G. Porlier
Sumario: The effects of ethyl alcohol and dextroamphetamine on nitrogen narcosis were investigated in two experiments using a 2-, 3- and 4- choice serial reaction time task with accuracy held constant. Narcosis was induced with air at 6.4 atmospheres absolute and a heliox mixture was used as a control. It is concluded that these data are consistent with the slowed processing model which proposes that the effects of narcosis on preformance are due to decrease in arousal in conjunction with secondary changes in task strategy
