R functions for RMI

Nonparametrc testing for the Race Model Inequality (RMI) on single participant data

R scripts and functions.

We developed a new nonparametric testing procedure based on the truncated Kolmogorov-Smirnov test for evaluating the race model inequality (RMI; Miller, 1982) in single participant's data. The procedure is implemented using a simple R function which only requires the base R package (R Core Team, 2018) to be installed. The R script function works with raw observed reaction times for three samples of observations, x (RT observations for the first single signal condition), y (RT observations for the second single signal condition), and z (RT observations for the redundant signal condition), and can be collected with any recording software capable to export data in .csv format.
