q2 i2 In Study 2, a main effect of cue type on draw relative accuracy (Pearson) showed representation-based cue users had higher relative accuracy than heuristic cue users (ηp² = 0.07). → Jaeger 2024

q2 · i2 · causal · r2

Study 2 ANOVA on draw relative accuracy (Pearson) with 48 undergraduates reading chemistry texts. Main effect of cue type: "F(1, 43) = 5.42, p = 0.025, ƞp2 = 0.07". Gamma analysis mirrored this, F(1, 43) = 4.63, p = 0.037, ηp² = 0.10. The interaction with image condition was not significant.

"There was also a main effect of cue type indicating that participants who reported basing their judgments on representation-based cues had higher relative accuracy than participants who used heuristic cues, F(1, 43) = 5.42, p = 0.025, ƞp2 = 0.07."
