Aggregate scores

Computed on correct trials only across 1 block(s); positive scores are interpreted as the network being engaged (slower RT in the harder condition). The ± figure is the standard error of the mean difference; the 95% CI uses the normal approximation. For Bayesian credible intervals (CrI) updated against literature priors, see the Bayesian tab.

Posterior summary

Closed-form Normal–Normal conjugate update: prior on the participant's mean μ for each ANT score, then per-block scores treated as observations x_i ~ Normal(μ, σ_L) with σ_L = 100 ms. The posterior is analytic, no MCMC needed. Priors come from the per-block Turing model in the previous Julia analysis (centred on Fan&Posner-style population means with σ=100 ms, deliberately broad). Reference column is the population distribution from Fan & Posner.

ScoreBlocks (n) Prior μ ± σ (ms) Reference μ ± σ (ms) Posterior μ ± σ (ms) 95% CrI for μ
Alerting140 ± 10047 ± 1848.8 ± 70.7[-89.8, 187.4]
Orienting050 ± 10051 ± 2150.0 ± 100.0[-146.0, 246.0]
Conflict098 ± 10084 ± 2598.0 ± 100.0[-98.0, 294.0]

Caveat: with only one block of data, the per-score posterior is dominated by the prior. Run more blocks to let the data update beliefs more strongly.

Alerting: RT(NC) − RT(DC)

Orienting: RT(CC) − RT(SC)

Conflict: RT(IC) − RT(CG)
