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

Error-related potentials (ErrPs) are a prominent electroencephalogram (EEG) correlate of performance monitoring, and so crucial for learning and adapting our behavior. It is poorly understood whether ErrPs encode further information beyond error awareness. We report an experiment with sixteen participants over three sessions in which occasional visual rotations of varying magnitude occurred during a cursor reaching task. We designed a brain-computer interface (BCI) to detect ErrPs that provided real-time feedback. The individual ErrP-BCI decoders exhibited good transfer across sessions and scalability over the magnitude of errors. A non-linear relationship between the ErrP-BCI output and the magnitude of errors predicts individual perceptual thresholds to detect errors. We also reveal theta-gamma oscillatory coupling that co-varied with the magnitude of the required adjustment. Our findings open new avenues to probe and extend current theories of performance monitoring by incorporating continuous human interaction tasks and analysis of the ErrP complex rather than individual peaks.
