Reaction Time: Females, Age 80+

Reaction time measures how quickly you respond to a stimulus. It reflects the speed of sensory processing, decision-making, and motor response. Simple reaction time naturally slows with age but can be improved with practice.

What these numbers mean for females aged 80+

A score around 460 ms is typical (50th percentile) for females in this age group. Times below about 390 ms fall near the 75th percentile or higher, indicating above-average performance (faster is better). Times above about 545 ms fall near the 25th percentile; about 75% of the reference population ran faster.

Percentiles show how common a value is, not whether it is healthy.
