“…The available population is very diverse and even international, thus it can provide a broad demonstration of generalizability, and the obtained samples also more closely reflect the test results of possible criminal suspects than a study that involves only university students as in typical lab studies. Furthermore, the RT‐CIT itself may be applied using online (web browser‐based) applications in real life cases (Lukács, 2019; Verschuere & Kleinberg, 2015): In any scenario where other appropriate software has not been set up, the RT‐CIT can be easily administered via an online application using any web browser on a standard computer (or even on smartphones; Lukács, Kleinberg, Kunzi, & Ansorge, 2020).…”

The response time-based concealed information test can reveal when a person recognizes a relevant item among other, irrelevant items, based on comparatively slower responding. Thereby, if a person is concealing the knowledge about the relevance of this item (e.g., recognizing it as a murder weapon), this deception can be revealed. A recent study, conducted online and using a between-subject design, introduced a significantly enhanced version by including additional items in the task. While this modified version outperformed the original version, it also resulted in a much higher rate of participant dropouts (i.e., participants leaving the experiment's website without completing the task). The grave implication is that the perceived enhancement is perhaps merely due to selective attrition. Therefore, the current experiment replicates the original one, but using a within-subject design. The results show that there is a large enhancement even when selective attrition is prevented.
