Subclaims¶

q3 i1 HICRT plus cognitive training enhanced value assessment (d = 0.38) and belief assessment (d = 0.40). → Zwilling 2019 q3 i2 HICRT plus cognitive training plus meditation improved value assessment (d = 0.62), exceeding the d = 0.38 of HICRT plus cognitive training. → Zwilling 2019 (2)

Evidence¶

Zwilling 2019¶

Zwilling, C. E., Daugherty, A. M., Hillman, C. H., Kramer, A. F., Cohen, N. J. & Barbey, A. K. (2019). Enhanced decision-making through multimodal training. npj Science of Learning 4:11. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41539-019-0049-x

q3 · i1 · causal · r2

ANCOVA contrasts against the active control in the 16-week RCT. The fitness-plus-cognitive group showed "value assessment (p = 0.025, Cohen 's d = 0.38" and "belief assessment (p = 0.022, Cohen 's d = 0.40"; its information integration result was null (p > 0.05).

"The multi-modal HICRT plus cognitive training intervention enhanced value assessment (p = 0.025, Cohen 's d = 0.38,d f = (4,132)) and belief assessment (p = 0.022, Cohen 's d = 0.40,d f = (4,132))."

Zwilling 2019 (2)¶

q3 · i2 · causal · r2

ANCOVA contrast against the active control in the same RCT. The fitness-plus-cognitive-plus-meditation group showed "value assessment ( p = 0.0018, Cohen 's d = 0.62"; its belief assessment and information integration results were null (p > 0.05).

"The multi-modal HICRT plus cognitive training plus meditation intervention improved value assessment ( p = 0.0018, Cohen 's d = 0.62,d f = (4,132))."
