Subclaims¶

q3 i? Cluster 5 showed uncorrected trends for Pedagogy and Pedagogy × Age effects (pFDR-within = 0.082), and Cluster 8 showed a Pedagogy × Gender interaction at the uncorrected level only; none survived correction. → Mino-Matot 2026

q3 · i? · associational · r2

Cluster-level GLMs across the five retained thalamic territories. For Cluster 8, the article reports a Pedagogy × Gender interaction "at the uncorrected level, F(1, 66) = 4.55, p = 0.037" with pFDR-within = 0.163, described as provisional and hypothesis-generating; no effect sizes printed for these terms.

"For Cluster 5, trends were observed for both the main effect of Pedagogy, F(1, 66) = 5.69, p = 0.020, pFDR-within = 0.082, and the Pedagogy × Age interaction, F(1, 66) = 4.75, p = 0.033, pFDR-within = 0.082, neithe r of which survived correction"

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Resting-state thalamic coupling with default-mode and executive-control networks was not prominent in childhood — related
• Guidance, immediate feedback, and system-directed control showed unadjusted moderator signals that did not survive multiplicity adjustment, making them hypothesis-generating only — related
• Time spent in the current pedagogy did not predict Cluster 2 connectivity, arguing against a simple cumulative-dose interpretation — related
