Response latency refers to the amount of time it takes for an individual to respond to a stimulus or make a decision. In this case, the stimulus is the choice between two lunch options and the response latency indicates the degree of preference for one option over the other. Response lag and response interval are incorrect terms for this concept. Response bias refers to systematic errors or tendencies in the way individuals respond, and is not relevant to measuring preference strength through response latency.
