Listening to Foreign Languages: Pump Up the Volume!
Article in Journal of cognition, 2025. 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
In this study, we investigated whether the visual "word height superiority illusion" (New et al., 2016) could be found in the auditory modality. In two experiments, participants listened to a word-word or word-pseudoword pair of the same or different intensity and judged whether one was louder than the other. They judged stimuli from their native language (L1) and second language (L2). In Experiment 1 with native French speakers, we found that words were perceived louder than pseudowords in the L1 (French) and the L2 (English). Moreover, the illusion was stronger in the L1 (French) than in the L2 (English). In Experiment 2 with native English speakers, we replicated the illusion both in the L1 (English) and the L2 (French) but to a similar extent. Overall, we replicated the visual word height superiority illusion in the auditory modality, which suggests that this may reflect a more general cognitive mechanism.
