if the delay is anywhere from 200 to 350 milliseconds after the presentation of the arrow chances are that you're going to press the button even when you shouldn't have on at least some of those trials
The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
the arrow would pop up on the screen and your job is to press the left key when the right facing arrow is presented you press the right key okay pretty straightforward but there's a limited amount of time in which you can do this and the idea is that you're going to need to do this within approximately 500 milliseconds of the presentation of that Arrow or else it's going to tell you that you missed that trial
every once in a while that arrow is presented and then with some delay ranging from anywhere from 100 milliseconds to maybe 350 milliseconds there would be a red circle or a red X also presented which is a stop signal and your job is to not press the key that corresponds to the direction of arrow in fact not press any key at all
if the stop signal is presented very shortly after let's say 100 milliseconds which is very very brief amount of time after the presentation of the arrow there's a good chance that you're going to be able to withhold the key pressing behavior
