New study finds link between slow reaction time and early death

A new study, published in the journal PLOS ONE, has found that adults who have slow reaction times have a higher risk of an early death.Reaction time was studied because it reflects how well the central nervous system is working. It also reflects basic mental skills, such as how quickly a person is able to process information.In a reaction time test, participants have to press a button as soon as they see an image appear on a computer monitor. An example of a test similar to the one used in this study can be found here. via Health News from Medical News Today Read More Here..
