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? Cue-based models predicting participants' explicit identity judgments performed near chance (AUC = 0.527) with small explanatory power (McFadden's pseudo-R² = 0.018), while truth models achieved pseudo-R² = 0.692. → Lixiang Yan 2026

q3 · i? · causal · r2
Logistic models of AI-attribution (N = 1,282) showed judgments only weakly tracked dialogue cues: longer latency and greater conversationality decreased AI-attribution; "explanatory power was small (McFadden's pseudo-R² = 0.018)". Judgment-level models performed near chance (AUC = 0.527) versus truth models (pseudo-R² = 0.692).
"In the logistic model of AI-attribution (𝑁 = 1,282), longer mean response latencies were associated with a lower likelihood of judging a teammate as AI (𝛽 = −0.210, SE = 0.094, 𝑧 = −2.25, 𝑝 = .025, 95% CI[−0.394,−0.027])"
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Participants fail to distinguish undisclosed AI teammates from human teammates above chance in synchronous text-based group interaction — a broader claim this one bears on
- Dialogue-derived interactional cues robustly encode ground-truth identity, achieving near-ceiling AI identification under cross-validation — related
- Representational similarity analysis shows identity judgments are organised around subjective impressions, orthogonal to diagnostic cue structure — possibly the same claim (merge candidate)
- Impression narratives rely on weakly diagnostic suspicion heuristics such as response speed, fluency, and perceived scriptedness
