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 Residual target facilitation and competitor inhibition were positively correlated in bilinguals (r = .5, p = .003) and monolinguals (r = .6, p = .001). → Blumenfeld Henrike K.; Marian Viorica 2011

Correlation analysis of priming-probe latencies in the same study. "A strong relationship between response latencies on competitor priming probes ... and response latencies on target priming probes ... was found in both bilinguals (r = .5, p = .003) and monolinguals (r = .6, p = .001)".
"A strong relationship between response latencies on competitor priming probes (measuring residual inhibition of preceding competitors) and response latencies on target priming probes (measuring residual activation of preceding targets) was found in both bilinguals (r = .5, p = .003) and monolinguals (r = .6, p = .001)"
