Effects of Eye Color on Typing Speed

Abstract

51 high school students enrolled in a typing class were categorized according to eye color. Dark-eyed individuals are reportedly better at reactive activities and light-eyed individuals are reportedly better at self-paced activities. Speed typing was assumed to be a reactive activity. No differences were observed between light-eyed and dark-eyed individuals or between boys and girls for 1- and 5-min. speed-typing and grades.
