Absence of sublexical representations in late-learning signers? A statistical critique of Lieberman et al. (2015).
Article in Journal of experimental psychology. Learning, memory, and cognition, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Lieberman, Borovsky, Hatrak, and Mayberry (2015) used a modified version of the visual-world paradigm to examine the real-time processing of signs in American Sign Language. They examined the activation of phonological and semantic competitors in native signers and late-learning signers and concluded that their results provide evidence that the mental lexicon of late learners is organized differently from that of native signers. In particular, they claimed that late-learning signers, in contrast to native signers, do not activate phonological competitors during the real-time recognition of spoken words. I argue that this claim receives no substantive support from the data and the inferential statistics. (PsycINFO Database Record
