D) reaction time measures are not reported.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A speed-accuracy tradeoff occurs when increases in speed lead to decreases in accuracy, or vice versa, indicating an inverse relationship. When reaction time (speed) and accuracy rates are positively related, it means that as one increases, so does the other, which suggests that improvements in speed do not come at the cost of accuracy, thus protecting against a speed-accuracy tradeoff.
