Today I was testing the ruler drop test on different people at different ages.
Aim:
To discover if people of different ages have different reflexes. The age difference between the two people I chose is about a year so the first person is 10 and the next is person is 11. I find it interesting that the younger one did a lot better than the older one but she has also done this test before many time whereas the older one has only ever done it once before.
Method:
I had to find people of different ages in my class I could only find 10 and 11 year old. I got them to hold their hand out partiality closed then drop the ruler with out them knowing when I was doing it from the height of their thumb, when they caught it I looked to see what Centimetre or Inch there thumb is touching. I kept a record of what the two people got the lower the measurement the better they did.
