=Chess Experiments[[#ChessExperiments]]= 
Pertti Saariluoma conducted a series of experiments which suggest that [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandmaster_%28chess%29|grandmasters]] are much quicker than novices in certain low-level perceptual processes. In the first of these experiments, a [[King|king]] of one [[Color|color]] was placed on the [[Chessboard|chessboard]], along with a [[Pieces|piece]] of the other color. The subject had to state whether the king was in [[Check|check]] or not. The average latencies were as follows: novices: 1550 ms, class players: 1250 ms, experts: 900 ms, grandmasters: 650 ms. The results indicated that skill is inversely proportional to the reaction time <ref>[[http://jeays.net/files/psychchess.htm|A brief survey of psychological studies of chess]] Copyright © 2001 Mark Jeays</ref> <ref>[[Pertti Saariluoma]] (**1995**). //Chess players' thinking//.
