Subclaims¶

q3 i1 Statistical learning increased during practice in both ASRT experiments (Experiment 2 d = 0.34; Experiment 3 d = 1.10). → Romain Quentin 2021 q3 i? Statistical learning decreased during rest periods in both ASRT experiments. → Romain Quentin 2021 (2)

Romain Quentin 2021¶

Romain Quentin, Lison Fanuel, Mariann Kiss, Marine Vernet, Teodóra Vékony, Karolina Janacsek, Leonardo G. Cohen and Dezso Nemeth. (2021). Statistical learning occurs during practice while high-order rule learning during rest period. npj Science of Learning 6:14. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41539-021-00093-9

q3 · i1 · causal · r2

Results of two ASRT experiments (Experiment 2: 180 participants, one session; Experiment 3: 25 participants, 8 weekly sessions). The article reports that "statistical learning increased during practice" with the printed t and d values.

"statistical learning increased during practice (Experiment 2: Monline = 5.22 ± 15.27 s, t(179) = 4.58, p <1 0−5, d = 0.34; Experiment 3: Monline = 7.37 ± 6.70 s, t(179) = 5.40, p <1 0−4, d = 1.10)"

q3 · i? · causal · r2

Same ASRT experiments, offline measure computed as the difference between the first bin of a block and the last bin of the previous block. The article reports statistical learning "decreased during rest periods" with printed statistics; no standardized effect size is printed for this contrast as a whole.

"and decreased during rest periods (Experiment 2: Moffline = −5.06 ± 13.97 s, t(179) = −4.85, p <1 0−5, d = 0.36; Experiment 3: Moffline = −5.05 ± 13.97 s, t(179) = 4.84, p <1 0−4, d = 0.98)"

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• High-order rule learning in the long ASRT task increases during rest periods and decreases during practice — reports the opposite
• General skill learning appears to occur during rest periods, but fatigue release cannot be excluded as an explanation — related
• Participants showed robust implicit statistical learning and general skill learning on the ASRT task in both studies — related
