They found a discrepancy between accuracy studies and reaction time (RT) studies, with only the latter providing evidence for a lette...

The results are that there exist an infinite “ 5 4 + ” -free word over a 5 letter alphabet with letter frequency 1 6 and an infinite “ 6 5 + ” -free word over a 6 letter alphabet with letter frequency 1 5 . 1991 Mathematics Subject Classification. 68R15.
