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