Abstract
Visual and auditory reaction times (VRT and ART) were studied in 38 male and 41 female healthy medical students in the age group of 17-18 years. Subjects were presented with two visual stimuli viz red and green light stimuli and two auditory stimuli viz high pitch and low pitch sound stimuli. The R.T. to red light was significantly lower than to green light stimulus in both sexes. No statistically significant difference was observed in the response to high and low pitch sound stimuli in both sexes.
