Background: It was hypothesized that vestibular stimulation causes improvement in auditory and visual reaction time in young adults.Objective: The present study was undertaken to observe the effectiveness of 8 weeks of vestibular exercises on auditory and visual reaction time in young adults.Materials and methods: A total of 40 male and female young adults were part of the study after obtaining informed consent. They were grouped into control and intervention groups by random numbers generated by the software randomizer.org. Reaction time was recorded by the reaction time apparatus. Post-intervention values were recorded after 8 weeks of intervention and compared.Results: There was a significant improvement in the auditory and visual reaction times in young adults who followed by the intervention. Conclusion: The present study results suggest that vestibular exercises have a positive impact on reaction time. The study highlights the need for further detailed studies in this area.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
