Reaction times were recorded to chromatic, mesopic stimuli to investigate mesopic reaction time spectral sensitivity. Measurements were made using three laboratory set-ups and a driving simulator. The chromatic stimuli had spectral distributions that ranged from quasi-monochromatic to broadband. Reaction time spectral sensitivity for small (0.29o) foveal stimuli changed little with luminance and was described adequately by V(l). Reaction time spectral sensitivity for peripheral stimuli exhibited a Purkinje shift, and approached V'(lambda) at 0.01 cd m-2. In the periphery, the results for medium-sized stimuli (2o) reflected the activity of colour-opponent neurons in addition to rod and cone-based achromatic activity, resulting in three-peaked spectral sensitivity functions.
