Misleading Trials: A rare peek into drug company documents reveals troubling differences between publicly available information and materials the company holds close to its chest, reports ScienceNews.org.org
This interaction was driven by the differences between performance on neutral trials and misleading trials across the three groups.
However, participants in the Emphasized Details group (t(43) = 5.31, P < 0.001, d = 0.69) and participants in the Interim Test group (t(43) = 3.51, P < 0.001, d = 0.58) were significantly less accurate on misleading trials as compared to neutral trials.
Although interim testing led to better performance across all items, the difference between the two groups was largest for neutral and misleading trials (consistent: t 86) = 2.58, P = 0.01 (ns after Bonferroni correction); neutral: t 86) = 6.67, P < 0.001, d = 1.44; misleading: t 86) = 4.43, P < 0.001, d = 0.90).
That is, participants in these groups demonstrated a greater difference in accuracy between neutral and misleading trials than participants in the Standard misinformation group.
In addition, participants were marginally more accurate on neutral trials compared to misleading trials (M = 0.42, t(131) = 1.71, P = 0.08).
