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 i3 Match trials were more accurate than mismatch trials (d = 0.99), with no difference between language groups. → Bialystok Ellen 2011
q3 i? Match trials were faster than mismatch trials, with no effect of language group and no interactions. → Bialystok Ellen 2011 (2)

q3 · i3 · associational · r2
3-way ANOVA for congruence, modality, and language group on accuracy in the dual-modality condition. "match trials were more accurate than mismatch trials, F (1, 61) = 78.65, p < .0001, d = 0.99", with no language group difference or interactions.
"match trials were more accurate than mismatch trials, F (1, 61) = 78.65, p < .0001, d = 0.99, and visual responses were more accurate than auditory responses, F (1, 61) = 4.17, p < .05, d = 0.23, with no difference between language groups"

q3 · i? · associational · r2
3-way ANOVA on dual-task reaction times categorized by congruence. "match trials were faster than mismatch trials, F (1, 60) = 35.30, p < .0001", with no language group effect and no interactions.
"match trials were faster than mismatch trials, F (1, 60) = 35.30, p < .0001, auditory trials faster than visual, F (1, 60) = 4.51, p < .04, with no effect of language group, F < 1, and no interactions"
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- The dual-task condition is more difficult than the single-task condition, with a condition-by-modality interaction in reaction time — related
- Bilingual children maintain higher accuracy than monolingual children in a dual-modality classification task, with the advantage limited to the visual task — reports the opposite
- Monolingual and bilingual children perform comparably on single-modality classification tasks in accuracy and speed — related
- Bilingual children show no reaction time cost for their dual-task accuracy advantage — related
- Children are more accurate and faster on NonStroop than Stroop trials of the Pet Store Stroop task — related
- Children showed match advantages in both the sentence-picture verification task and the sentence-sensibility judgment task, replicating prior embodied-comprehension findings — related
