New approaches to the single-interval adjustment matrix yes-no task.
Article 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
Two adaptations of the Single-Interval Adjust-Matrix Yes-No (SIAM-YN) task, designed to increase the efficiency of absolute threshold estimation, are described. The first, the SIAM Twin Track (SIAM-TT) task, consists of two interleaved tracks of the standard SIAM-YN that are run in the same trial with a single response. The second new task modifies the binary SIAM-YN task by using a six-point rating-scale (SIAM-Rating). In Experiment 1, data from three tasks estimating absolute thresholds were obtained using a 10-ms tone, the 2-IFC up-down procedure, SIAM-YN task, and the SIAM-TT task. The data support the use of the SIAM-TT as an alternative to the conventional two-interval and one-interval (SIAM-YN) tasks when used to estimate absolute thresholds. By presenting two interleaved SIAM-YN tracks on a single experimental trial, the SIAM-TT task possesses greater efficiency alongside its signal-detection tradition which confers less response bias. Similarly, in Experiment 2, which compared the 2-IFC adaptive, SIAM-YN, and SIAM-Rating tasks, there was no main effect of task upon threshold estimates. The findings replicate previous studies supporting the validity and efficiency of the SIAM-YN task, and extends the SIAM-YN toolbox to efficiently facilitate the generation of psychometric functions (the SIAM-TT task) and Receiver Operating Characteristic Curves (the SIAM-Rating task).
