An EZ-diffusion model for response time and accuracy

From: Psychonomic Bulletin & Review | Date: February 1, 2007| Author: Wagenmakers, Eric-Jan; van der Maas, Han L J; Grasman, Raoul P P P | Copyright information

The EZ-diffusion model for two-choice response time tasks takes mean response time, the variance of response time, and response accuracy as inputs. The model transforms these data via three simple equations to produce unique values for the quality of information, response conservativeness, and nondecision time. This transformation of observed data in terms of unobserved variables addresses the speed-accuracy trade-off and allows an unambiguous quantification of performance differences in two-...
