One quantitative measure of vocal motor control is phonation onset latency relative to presentation of an external stimulus in a reaction time task. However, variables within the design of reaction time experiments can affect laryngeal reaction time (LRT) values. The present study examines effects of foreperiod characteristics on LRT for normal speakers. Foreperiod is the interval between presentation of warning and response cues. LRT was affected by absolute foreperiod duration, by the average foreperiod duration of a block of trials, and by the ordering and range of foreperiods within a block of trials. Results are discussed with respect to foreperiod effects on the subjective expectancy and objective probability of occurrence of the response cue and on the timing of neurophysiologic processes. Control of subjective effects is critical to assessment of neurophysiologic constraints on LRT.
