q3 i? The Control group, performing test-retest sessions without reactivations, showed significant memory deterioration. → Gilad Schrift 2022

Experiment 1 post-hoc comparisons in the Results section: the Control group's "mean score change = −18.04 ± 3.15 S.E." with t(30) = −5.72, P <1 0−5, and a Bonferroni-corrected Tukey test against the Reactivations group at P <1 0−6. No effect size is printed.

"in contrast to the Control group (Post-hoc Tukey test, P <1 0−6, Bonferroni corrected) whose performance deteriorated (mean score change = −18.04 ± 3.15 S.E., t(30) = −5.72, P <1 0−5)"
