q3 i3 The effect of cueing on memory interacted significantly with the sleep-disturbance group reported after night 1. → Göldi 2019

Evidence¶

Göldi 2019¶

Göldi, M. & Rasch, B. (2019). Effects of targeted memory reactivation during sleep at home depend on sleep disturbances and habituation. npj Science of Learning 4:5. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41539-019-0044-2

q3 · i3 · causal · r2

2 × 3 mixed ANOVA in 66 participants with within-subject factor cueing and between-group factor sleep disturbance (undisturbed n=15, unspecific n=32, disturbed-by-words n=19). The interaction was significant with "F(2,63) = 5.58, P = 0.006, η2 = 0.15"; neither main effect was significant.

"In a 2 × 3 ANOVA, we observed a highly signi ficant interaction between the within-subject factor “cueing” and sleep disturbance group ( F(2,63) = 5.58, P = 0.006, η2 = 0.15)"

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

• Sleep — moderator: an instructional effect differs with it
