Excerpts

Additionally, there was a marginally significant main effect of veracity on the duration of gaze aversion, with liars ( M = 0.28, SD = 0.20) showing a longer duration than truth-tellers ( M = 0.21, SD = 0.13), F (1, 46) = 3.83, p = 0.057, η p 2 = 0.08.

Differences between negative and neutral sounds almost reached significance.

However, this was qualified by an interaction that approached significance; users were, if anything, more persuaded by informational influence when they believed the agent was AI (compared to a human), whereas there was no difference between AI and human framing in the normative influence condition.

The amplitudes of the theta and alpha activities in the frontal area showed a similar pattern of significant correlation (including correlation with trend toward significance) as a whole (except for the alpha activity at the left frontal).

Additionally, in the present study, there is no significant or close-to-significant correlation between behavioral interference and the LPP/Alpha ERD (neither regarding the absolute values nor for the emotional vs. neutral differentials).

Evaluation of Virtual Environment The evocation of nausea due to the 3D-presentation of environments differed with marginal significance between both environments.

We found a marginally significant main effect of the environment on decision-making as measured with the HLL, and a significant main effect on accuracy increase in the KONT-P.

An interaction of language by stimulus [ F (1.59) = 3.697, p = 0.06, = 0.02] approached significance.

This effect, however, was only marginally significant and, therefore, should be treated with caution.

However, the correlation between ‘number practices’ and connecting showed a trend toward significance ( Table 3 ).

For instance, there was a notable trend showing lower perceived performance in the text-only condition.

Based on the previous findings ( Shek and Lin, 2016a , b ), we expected that there would be an increasing trend in adolescent risk and delinquent behavior (Hypothesis 1a) and problem behavioral intention (Hypothesis 1b) over time.

Limited child impacts for a brief virtual approach Our primary goal for children was to increase their broad interest in science and math, but there were no significant gains and a negative trend on this outcome (ES = −0.19).

Although the interaction between authenticity and valence was only marginally significant, further simple effect analyses revealed that the difference in willingness to share positive vs. negative headlines was significant for both true and false information.

(2010) investigated this connection using mixed-sex ratings of senior high school yearbook photos, finding a marginally significant correlation between HGS and attractiveness for men but not women.

Lastly, there were no differences in the degree of pitch variation (average SD) between Black-primed ( M = 35.39, SD = 14.13) and White-primed participants ( M = 41.30, SD = 27.53), t (36) = 0.87, p = 0.39; d = -0.27, but a marginally significant difference was found in minimum pitch, with Black-primed participants ( M = 83.35, SD = 20.39) having a lower minimum pitch than White-primed participants ( M = 100.17, SD = 35.69), t (36) = 1.81, p = 0.08; d = -0.58.

Aging has a strong impact on the quality of relationships and sexual functioning, whereas, human sexuality is one of the key elements of life quality and may be significant in maintaining proper human relationships and the feeling of being an integral part of the society (Zanni et al., 2003 ).

This illustrates the sensitivity of the results to the algorithm, and therefore reminds us to be cautious when concluding on the basis of only “slightly significant” p -values.

Supplementary Analysis As two main paths are “marginally significant” (i.e., the coefficient of the interactive term and the relationship between perceived image cost and feedback seeking behavior), we conducted the supplementary analysis without control variables to detect the effects more powerfully.

It is note-worthy that while all the Pearson correlations are highly significant (all p s < 0.001), only a few partial correlations are significant.

Time main effect, as well as post hoc tests, were highly significant with large effect sizes.

However, because of its prominence in daily life and the substantial cumulative effect, the examination of perceived chronic social adversity and its symptomatic sequelae is theoretically and practically significant, and we believe it is a critical source of common psychological distress or difficulty.

It has been proposed that negative aspects of maternal personality, such as poorer social and communication abilities and insensitivity to children, may be significant contributors to children’s anxiety ( Crawford et al., 2011 ).

The difference in the positive humanisation condition went in the opposite direction but was only marginally significant, b = −0.71, 95% CI [−1.44, 0.02], t (77) = −1.95, p = 0.055. 3.3.

Also personality-related variables (State Anxiety and Openness to Experience) were associated with idiom comprehension, although in marginally significant ways.
