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.
q2 i? In the hierarchical regression for early orthographic knowledge, the Fish task was the only significant predictor of the full model (Beta = .373, p = .033), while age group and maternal education were not significant. → Gandolfi 2021

q2 · i? · associational · r1
Hierarchical linear regression on the whole sample with the early orthographic knowledge task score as dependent variable. The full model was significant, F(5;41) = 3.57, p = .010, R2 = .33; R2adj = .24; the Fish task predicted uniquely (Beta = .373, p = .033), and the inhibitory control block added "an amount of variance of 11% but this addition was not statistically significant" (R2Δ = .11, p = .058).
"The interference suppression task was the only significant predictor of the full model. Expressive vocabulary was a significant predictor only in block 3 of the analysis; contrary to the phonological awareness outcome, the results showed that Time 2 age group and mother’s education were not significant predictors in the early orthographic knowledge measure."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Early expressive vocabulary predicts emergent literacy outcomes only until inhibitory control measures are added, after which it is no longer significant — related
- Early interference suppression, but not response inhibition, correlates with emergent literacy measures in both 4–5- and 5–6-year-old subsamples — related
- In toddlerhood, interference suppression correlates with expressive vocabulary after controlling for age, whereas response inhibition does not — related
- ERP interference suppression amplitude predicts mathematics grades even after controlling for fluid intelligence — related
- Interference suppression, but not response inhibition, relates to academic achievement and schooling skills — related
