PROGRAMMING COMPLEX PSYCHOPHYSIOLOGIC EXPERIMENTS WITH PUNCHED PAPER TAPE: A METHODOLOGICAL APPROACH.

Punched paper tape readers, frequently used for machine control and computer input, are readily adaptable for the purposes of presenting extremely complex signal sequences such as those used in psychophysiology. A description of basic operating principles is given together with an explanation of the minor modifications necessary to adapt this instrument to signal control. Complete schematics are presented of an instrument with seven channel control capacity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
