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? During early exposure with alpha stimulation, SOA-aligned RT phases at ~4 Hz and ~7 Hz were not uniformly distributed across participants, indicating initiated phase resetting. → Zhijun Liao 2024

q3 · i? · causal · r2
Rayleigh circular-statistics analysis of detrended, SOA-sorted RTs from the alpha-stimulation group during Blocks 1–3 on congruent trials; phase nonuniformity at "~4 Hz ( r = 2.015, z = 3.345, p = 0.034)" and ~7 Hz (r = 3.075, z = 3.469, p = 0.030) indicated phase resetting. No effect size beyond these statistics was printed.

Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Alpha-rate (10 Hz) but not theta-rate (5 Hz) sensory stimulation improves accuracy of speech-print associative learning compared to a null-stimulation control — related
- Neither alpha- nor theta-rate stimulation induced a significant behavioral spectral peak at its own stimulation frequency in detrended RT series — related
