Onset time (OT): the interval between target and tone presentation and movement onset. Thus, onset times have negative values for all movements initiated before target appearance, as in timed response paradigms and positive values for movements initiated after target appearance, as in reaction time paradigms.
Mean velocity (MV): the movement length (from onset to the reversal point) divided by the movement time.
