Subclaims¶

q3 i? A linear regression between composite exploratory indices for visual and semantic search, controlling for ADHD score, was not significant. → Van den Driessche 2019

Evidence¶

Van den Driessche 2019¶

Van den Driessche, C., Chevrier, F., Cleeremans, A. & Sackur, J. (2019). Lower Attentional Skills predict increased exploratory foraging patterns. Scientific Reports 9:10948. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-46761-0

q3 · i? · associational · r2

Secondary analysis summing significant quantiles per child into visual and semantic exploration indices; the regression controlling for ADHD score was not significant (p > 0.3). Equivalence was not tested and no effect size was printed.

"The linear regression between the two indices controlled for the ADHD score was not significant (p > 0.3)."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Higher ADHD scores predict an excess of long-distance jumps in visual search without any cost to visual search performance
• Higher ADHD scores increase the variability of semantic search paths via more long-distance jumps, but not mean semantic distance — related
• Children with higher ADHD rating-scale scores make longer transitions between consecutively retrieved items in a visual search task — related
• Longer inter-item response times follow larger semantic distances in children's semantic search paths — related
