The (interacting) variables cognitive pre-test score and item difficulty were centered when testing the explanatory item response models to ease the interpretation of effects.
This adaptation should be taken into consideration in the experimental design to avoid bias in the interpretation of effects of xenobiotics on biomarkers.
The proportion of bees that died at the hives (rather than away from the hives) may itself have been affected by the experimental treatment, making interpretation of effects of treatment on the indices of observed mortality difficult (see "Conclusions" section).
The utilization of molecular endpoints in ecotoxicology can provide rapid and valuable information on immediate organismal responses to chemical stressors and is increasingly used for mechanistic interpretation of effects at higher levels of biological organization.
This issue is extremely relevant in the present context, given the proposed interpretation of effects obtained with nonword primes.
To enable interpretation of effects that involve scales, we also calculated standardized effect sizes.
Together, these issues can make the interpretation of effects involving latent variables difficult.
Interpretation of effects with TD using HRs is however similar to ORs.
This lack of markers to establish clinical relevance severely hampers proper interpretation of effects on markers of low-grade inflammation.
Yet, interpretation of effects on growth can be complex considering that there are two types of catch-up growth.
