Use of a delayed signal to stop a visual reaction-time response.
Abstract
In a visual RT experiment, 5 male Ss were each confronted with 2lights and instructed to respond to 1 light but not respond whenboth lights occurred. The onset of the 2 lights was made asynchronousby 0, 12, 33, or 63 msec. Probability of inhibiting the responsedeclined markedly for each delay and increased with RT. It was con-cluded that choice RT is correlated with the extent of the stimulusinformation processing and the duration of effective stimulation whichhas preceded initiation of the motor event.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
