Background: A number of reports have demonstrated significant differences in human performance ondiverse somatosensory-based discriminatory tasks dependent on the individual’s neurological status. Forexample, compromised neurological status has been shown to lead to poor performance on tactile-basedtasks such as vibrotactile stimulus amplitude discrimination, frequency discrimination, temporal orderjudgement, timing perception, and reaction time, and these deficits have been observed across a diversespectrum of neurological disorders.Results: In this report, response time of recently concussed individuals (1-3 days) was found to besignificantly longer (~25%) than that of non-concussed individuals (i.e., controls) and individualsrecovering from concussion (10+ days post-concussion). Additionally, a significant difference was found inresponse time on two different tasks. Timing perception, which is hypothesized to engage significantly moreneural circuitry than amplitude discrimination, had a significantly longer average response time thanamplitude discrimination.Conclusions: These findings strongly suggest that response time could be used as a discriminative measurewhen evaluating overall neurological health and/or cognitive function, and this is consistent with findingsof other reports that examined speed-accuracy trade-offs on discrimination tasks.
