This class of mental tests, however, has no true metric relating the test scores to any specific properties of the brain per se. The scores merely represent an ordinal scale, only ranking individuals according to their overall performance on a variety of complex mental tasks. The resulting scores represent no more thTime perceptionNeuropsychologyTime perception.Neuropsychology.612.877.31bclJensen Arthur Robert1524868MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910784550503321Clocking the mind3765935UNINA
