If the mean time to respond to a stimulus is much higher than the median time to respond, the shape of the distribution of response times is positively skewed
<h3>How to determine the shape of the distribution</h3>
For a distribution, the following are the relationships between the mean and the median values
- Equal mean and median
- Mean greater than median
- Median greater than mean
When the mean is greater than the median, it means that the distribution is skewed right or positively skewed
Hence, the shape of the distribution of response times is positively skewed.
