Subclaims¶

q3 i2 Among high-presence participants, the dual-context group retained 92% (±7%) versus 76% (±12%) at one week; the group-by-presence interaction was significant with a printed partial eta-squared of 0.11. → Joey Ka-Yee Essoe 2022 q3 i? Low-presence single- and dual-context participants did not differ on one-week retention. → Joey Ka-Yee Essoe 2022 (2)

q3 · i2 · causal · r2

In the behavioural experiment's surprise telephone test (T5) among high-presence participants (mean split), "the dual-context group exhibited a striking 92% (±7%) one-week retention rate" versus 76% (±12%), with a printed interaction effect size of partial η² = 0.11 and simple main effect p = 0.002.

"the dual-context group exhibited a striking 92% (±7%) one-week retention rate, which was significantly higher than 76% (±12%) retention rate exhibited by the single-context group (Fig. 3d; RM-ANOVA interaction, p = 0.03, ηp 2 = 0.11"

q3 · i? · causal · r2

The same behavioural experiment found that among low-presence participants "did not perform differently on one-week retention" (p = 0.47); no effect size was printed, so the null is not evidence of equivalence.

"Single- and dual-context participants who reported low presence did not perform differently on one-week retention (simple main effect for low-presence participants, p = 0.47)"
