摘要: The race model inequality (RMI) introduced in Miller (1982) puts an upper limit on the amount of reaction time facilitation within redundant-signals paradigm that is consistent with a model. Here, it shown through theoretical analysis and numerical simulation inferences from RMI test may become invalid when experimenter misses proportion responses by limiting recording interval (right censoring) or excluding outliers (left and/or right censoring). Moreover, correction for right-censored distributions proposed.
