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? Among day-1-correct items, congruent new-words were recognized more often than incongruent ones (62.4% vs. 38.9%, χ2(1) = 78.32, p < 0.0001), despite incongruent trials being answered more accurately on day 1. → Vavra 2023

q3 · i? · causal · r2
GLMM on recognition memory among items answered correctly on day 1 in the laboratory recognition group (N = 29). The pattern held for raw recognition rates independent of day-1 accuracy (χ2(1) = 9.18, p < 0.002).
"Participants ( N = 29) were, on average, more likely to remember the congruent new-words (congruent: 62.4% vs. incongruent: 38.9%, main effect of congruence: χ2(1) = 78.32 p < 0.0001) after 24 h"
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Congruency enhanced item recognition of new descriptions in experiment 2 but not in experiment 1 — related
- In a laboratory word-learning task, introducing feedback in the second half of learning improved immediate meaning-extraction performance, while withdrawing feedback produced no significant drop on day 1 — related
- In the laboratory experiment, feedback order effects on next-day recognition were specific to congruent trials, with a trend for feedback boosting incongruent-item memory regardless of timing — related
- In the laboratory experiment, withdrawing feedback in the second half of learning significantly lowered next-day recognition of congruent word meanings, while adding feedback later did not impair recognition — related
- In an online replication, adding feedback in the second half improved immediate extraction of concrete word meanings for congruent trials only, replicating the laboratory effect — related
- Congruent new information is better remembered, though strongly surprising incongruent information can also be learned well — a broader claim this one bears on
