The problem of selecting the best item is considered for cases arising when both a quantal and a quantitative response are available. Solutions are outlined for data obtained from either one or two groups. The basis of the solutions consists in ranking the items according to the significance level of a suitably chosen statistic which tests the hypotheses of equal response proportions and equal mean response times against suitable alternatives. The approach described here is an application of results due to Weiler.
