Subclaims¶

q3 i2 A main effect of task on MRT (BF10 = 8.27 x 10^12; d = 0.76) showed slower responding during the stop-signal task; groups were equivalent (BF01 = 3.43; d = 0.17). → Fosco 2019

q3 · i2 · causal · r2

Tier 1 Bayesian mixed ANOVA on mean reaction time in 144 children aged 8-13. "children responded more slowly during the stop-signal than the no-tone task" (d = 0.76), replicating prior work; the group x task interaction was inconclusive (BF10 = 1.94).

"a main effect of task was observed (BF10 = 8.27 × 1012; d = 0.76), such that children responded more slowly during the stop-signal than the no-tone task, as expected. The ADHD and Non-ADHD groups were equivalent in terms of response speed (BF01 = 3.43; d = 0.17)."

Related Claims¶

• Children adopt a more cautious response strategy (higher boundary separation) when intermittent stop trials are introduced — related
• Introducing intermittent stop trials does not change processing speed (drift rate) in children with or without ADHD — related
• Non-decision time (encoding/motor speed) is unchanged when inhibitory demands are introduced — related
• Reward does not alter the speed or variability of response execution in either stop signal task — related
• Maltreated and nonmaltreated adolescents show similar reaction times on go trials of the go/no go task — related
• Pre-adolescent children already exhibit proactive inhibitory control, slowing responses as stop-signal probability increases — related
• Children with and without ADHD show equivalent increases in response caution when stop trials are introduced — related
• Adolescents with ADHD respond more slowly than non-ADHD peers across all conditions, and color-shape binding slows responses in both groups — related
• Reactive inhibition speed and accuracy improve with age between 8 and 11 years, while proactive response slowing does not increase with age — related
• Equivalent performance-adjustment effects hold when clinical control and neurotypical children are analyzed separately — related
