A category theory perspective on the Language of Thought: LoT is universal.
Review in Frontiers in psychology, 2024. 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
The Language of Thought (LoT) hypothesis proposes that some collections of mental states and processes are symbol systems to explain language-like systematic properties of thought. Recent proponents of this hypothesis point to additional LoT-like properties in non-linguistic domains to claim that LoT remains the "best game in town" in terms of explanatory coverage. Nonetheless, LoT assumes but does not explain why/how symbolic representations connect to other (non-symbolic) formats. The perspective presented here is supposed to bridge this gap as a duality in a category theoretical sense: (perceptual) data are projected onto a base (conceptual) space in one direction, and in the opposite direction, these data are referenced by that space. Accordingly, perception is dual to conception. These constructions follow from a
