Main Topics:

Fractal geometry and the dynamics of complex systems are presented as a means to motivate an integrated understanding of the variability observed in response time measurements from cognitive tasks. The framework supplies foundational constraints for skill acquisition and the expression of skilled performance. More generally, it informs scientists about how the human body, nervous system, and mind coordinate the myriad processes in support of cognition and action.
