Subclaims¶

q3 i? The task-specific improvement was identified only when analyzing individual learning curves; the average performance data appeared considerably smoother and did not show it. → Julia Ericson and Torkel Klingberg 2023

Evidence¶

q3 · i? · associational · r2

Comparison of the averaged training data for the whole population against the fitted piecewise linear model with average parameter values (βTS = 0.269; βcap = 0.013; α = 5.497; τ = 0.481). The article reports the improvement "was not apparent in the average performance data".

"the task-speci fic improvement was identi fied only when analyzing individual learning curves and was not apparent in the average performance data, which had a considerably smoother appearance (Fig. 6c)."
