Subclaims¶

q3 i? Participants extracted concrete meanings best when receiving feedback (47.8%) after first doing the task without feedback (40.5%), with no significant change for the group starting with feedback, and no significant incongruent-trial effects. → Vavra 2023

q3 · i? · causal · r2

GLMM on day-1 meaning extraction in the online experiment (N = 73, typed responses, forced answering); congruence-by-order (χ2(1) = 4.25, p = 0.039) and three-way interaction were significant.

"Participants extracted concrete meanings best when they receiv- ing feedback (47.8%) after having first done the task without any feedback (40.5%, odds-ratio = 1.34 ± 0.14, p = 0.005) while the group of participants who started with feedback did not change their performance significantly replicating the results from the first experiment"

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• 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, next-day recognition was higher for congruent new-word meanings than for incongruent items, while day-1 performance showed the opposite pattern — related
