The Donders Paradigm

The Donders Paradigm is a research method used to study how the brain processes information and makes decisions. It involves measuring the time it takes for people to respond to different tasks. By comparing response times for simple tasks versus more complex ones, researchers can infer how much extra time is needed to process additional information or make a decision. This approach helps scientists understand the cognitive processes behind thinking, decision-making, and reaction times, contributing to our knowledge of how the brain works.
