Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i? With each proceeding trial, the probability of a correct response decreased in the mixed block by 1% (p < .0001), while it did not significantly change in the flowers block (increasing trend of 0.8%, p = .11). → Ger Ebru 2023

q3 · i? · associational · r2
Exploratory GLMM on trial-level accuracy in the N = 147 sample, chunking every six trials. Correct-response probability decreased in the mixed block "by 1% (p < .0001)" per trial-chunk but did not significantly change in the flowers block. Authors suggest fatigue in the longer mixed block as a common cause.
"We found that, with each proceeding trial, the probability of giving a correct response decreased in the mixed block by 1% (p < .0001)1, while it did not significantly change in the flowers block despite showing an increasing trend of 0.8% (p = .11)"
