Abstract
A Landolt C visual acuity test was evaluated for inclusion in a battery of Performance Evaluation Tests for Environmental Research (PETER) for use in repeated measures experiments. Eight subjects were tested for 12 days to determine stability of means, standard deviations and cross-day correlations. Mixed results for these cross-day correlation analyses made questionable the stability of speed and error measures. Fine-structure analyses indicated that the task was more a measure of response accuracy than acuity. Fine-structure analyses in future performance test evaluation and exploration of alternative visual acuity tests are recommended. It is concluded that the Landolt C test in the form used is not stable and cannot be recommended as a test of visual acuity for inclusion in PETER.
