Title

Does Shyness Affect Reaction Time?

Description

This study attempts to answer the question 'does shyness really affects reaction time?' In the present study, Crozier's (1995) shyness scale was employed to measure the level of shyness. Reaction times both for sound and light in simple and discrimination conditions were measured
through digital reaction time apparatus. A total of 358 (266 boys and 92 girls) college students served as subjects for the present study. Results revealed that shyness was not related to reaction times both for sound and light in simple and discrimination conditions indicating that shyness is independent of reaction time and it does not affect reaction time of the individuals.
