1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Previous studies have demonstrated a complex relationship between ensemble perception and outlier detection. We presented two array of heterogeneously oriented stimulus bars and different mean orientations and/or a bar with an outlier orientation, asking participants to discriminate the mean orientations or detect the outlier. Perceptual learning was found in every case, with improved performance accuracy and speeded responses. Testing for improved accuracy through cross-task transfer, we found considerable transfer from training outlier detection to mean discrimination performance, and none in the opposite direction. Implicit learning in terms of increased accuracy was not found in either direction when participants performed one task, and the second task's stimulus features were present. Reaction time improvement was found to transfer in all cases. This study adds to the already broad knowledge concerning perceptual learning and cross-task transfer of training effects.
