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? Aroc showed no significant correlation with mean stimulus contrast (r = −.09, p = .50) or with d′ (r = .21, p = .12). → Weil L.G. 2013

Evidence

Weil L.G. 2013

Weil L.G., Fleming S.M., Dumontheil I., Kilford E.J., Weil R.S., Rees G., Dolan R.J., Blakemore S.-J. (2013). The development of metacognitive ability in adolescence. Consciousness and Cognition. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.concog.2013.01.004

q3 · i? · associational · r1

Pearson correlations between Aroc and performance measures in the 56-participant sample, where accuracy was staircase-maintained at around 71% (mean 70.9%, SD 1.2%) and Aroc ranged between 0.60 and 0.80.

"There was no significant correlation between Aroc and task difficulty (mean stimulus contrast; Pearson's r = −.09, p = .50) or Aroc and d′ (r = .21, p = .12)."
