If you have a large number of participants then you should stagger their start times. This will help prevent people having to queue for ages to register and will ensure a steady flow of walkers starting off onto the streets/paths. Think carefully about your registration process. You may want to allocate staggered start times before the day, or you could advertise a start ‘window’ of two to three hours and ask people to queue and register as they arrive. | Journal of Experimental Psychology General 2006 Vol. 135 No. 3 348-367 Copyright 2006 by the American Psychological Association 0096-3445 06 DOI The Time of Our Lives Life Span Development of Timing and Event Tracking J.

Miller Bowling Green State University Life span developmental profiles were constructed for 305 participants ages 4-95 for a battery of paced and unpaced perceptual-motor timing tasks that included synchronize-continue tapping at a wide range of target event rates. Two life span hypotheses derived from an entrainment theory of timing and event tracking were tested. A preferred period hypothesis predicted a monotonic slowing of a preferred rate tempo of event tracking across the life span. An entrainment region hypothesis predicted a quadratic profile in the range of event rates that produced effective timing across the life span specifically age-specific entrainment regions should be narrower in childhood and late adulthood than in midlife. Findings across tasks provide converging support for both hypotheses. Implications of these findings are discussed for understanding critical periods in development and age-related slowing of event timing. Keywords timing preferred tempo rhythm perception and production entrainment life span development A challenging psychological question concerns how people effectively coordinate their behavior with the dynamic unfolding of events in the environment. At its core this question relates to the problem of serial order Lashley 1951 and to issues of relative timing Fraisse 1963 . In general to respond appropriately to an event an individual must not only produce a relevant response but do so at the right time. One premise of the present research is that the time structure of an event tacitly influences
