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.
q2 i? Delay aversion peaked around age 15 in descriptive plots, but the age effect was not statistically significant. → Poon K 2018
Evidence¶
Poon K 2018¶
Poon K (2018) Hot and Cool Executive Functions in Adolescence: Development and Contributions to Important Developmental Outcomes. Front. Psychol. 8:2311. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2017.02311
q2 · i? · associational · r2
ANCOVA on CGT delay aversion across six age groups with IQ covariate. The article reports "no significant age difference was identified," F(5, 135) = 1.30, p = 0.27, η p2 = 0.05; the bell shape with a peak at age 15 is descriptive, with all post-hoc comparisons non-significant.
"Similar with C GT risk adjustment, there was a bell shape across the age groups, despite no significant age difference was identified [ F(5, 135) = 1.30, p = 0.27, η p2 = 0.05; see Table 12, Figure 7]."

- Hot executive function (CGT risk adjustment) shows a bell-shaped developmental curve, peaking at age 14 and declining thereafter — related
