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 i3 The negative priming effect on probe response times reached statistical significance in both age groups, with Cohen's d = 1.07 for adolescents and d = 0.73 for adults. → Rossi 2019

q3 · i3 · causal · r2
Paired t-tests on probe RTs in the negative priming paradigm showed significant negative priming effects in both groups: "t(19) = 2.08, p < .025, Cohen's d = 1.07 for adolescents and t(29) = 1.77, p < .05, Cohen's d = 0.73 for adults". Both effect sizes are medium-to-large.
"t(19) = 2.08, p < .025, Cohen's d = 1.07 for adolescents and t(29) = 1.77, p < .05, Cohen's d = 0.73 for adults"
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- The amplitude of the negative priming effect did not differ between adolescents and adults — related
- Adolescents and educated adults require more time to compare common-denominator fractions after a common-numerator prime than after a control prime (negative priming effect) — a broader claim this one bears on
- No significant differences in probe error rates between test and control trials were found, suggesting the negative priming RT effect is not due to speed-accuracy trade-offs — related
