Abstract

The use of inspection time (IT) in conjunction with an ex-Gaussian decomposition of reaction time (RT) data allows for a more accurate and comprehensive description of performance on information processing speed tasks. Children with ADHD demonstrated longer tau during speeded decision-making, which was associated with worse executive functioning.
