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? The negative affectivity latent factor did not predict activation (β = .09, p = .449) or accuracy (β = -.16, p = .154). → Quiñones-Camacho Laura E. 2019
q3 i? The surgency latent factor did not predict activation (β = -.02, p = .804) or accuracy (β = -.12, p = .205). → Quiñones-Camacho Laura E. 2019 (2)

q3 · i? · associational · r2
A follow-up SEM with a negative affectivity latent factor (sadness, fear, anger, discomfort, soothability) showed good fit but "did not predict activation (β = .09, SE = 6.07, p = .449) or accuracy (β = -.16, SE = 3.96, p = .154)."
"The negative affectivity latent factor did not predict activation (β = .09, SE = 6.07, p = .449) or accuracy (β = -.16, SE = 3.96, p = .154)."

Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6969345/
q3 · i? · associational · r2
A follow-up SEM with a surgency latent factor (high intensity pleasure, impulsivity, activity level, positive anticipation, shyness) showed excellent fit but "did not predict activation (β = -.02, SE = 6.82, p = .804) or accuracy (β = -.12, SE = 4.38, p = .205)."
"As expected, the surgency latent factor did not predict activation (β = -.02, SE = 6.82, p = .804) or accuracy (β = -.12, SE = 4.38, p = .205)."
