Excerpts

Results indicated a trend toward significant recruitment above baseline for actively learned letters in the left fusiform gyrus [ t (11) = 2.02, p = 068] (Figure 7A ) and right fusiform gyrus [ t (11) = 1.98, p = 0.073], (Figure 7B ) but no other contrasts approached significance.

The categorical associations of each of these methods of determining hemisity with each other and with asymmetry of the vgACC were highly significant (Morton and Rafto, 2010 ).

As expected, both the Grammaticality effect and the Interference effect are highly significant, and the interaction between Interference and CS scores is also significant.

There seems to be a numerical trend of interference, but the effect of Interference wasn't significant ( p > 0.2) (licensed 434 ms; unlicensed 480 ms; interference 458 ms).

The split group analysis showed a small trend of modulation by CS scores: only the low-CS-scores group showed Interference, but it is difficult to draw any conclusions from this result since the high-CS-scores group did not show any difference between conditions, let alone an interference effect.

However, when comparing IGT performance between gambling disorder sufferers and healthy controls dependent on dopamine release, a highly significant pattern emerged.

While the first half of the prediction was confirmed, there were two qualifications: (a) the initial preference for the infant observer group was only marginally significant, and (b) this preference soon gave way to a collective preference for both the infant and adult COG image samples—that is, a preference for the real observer groups over the artificial observer groups.

A marginal 4-way interaction was present that in post-hoc analyses appeared to be primarily driven by a weak trend for a difference in the amount of interference (neutral vs. incongruent) for the attended auditory task only.

The main effect of Step was highly significant and accounted for the highest proportion of the variability of the data.

Exclusively gay men reported lower and drive for thinness and internalization; these differences were marginally significant.

A decreasing trend emerged thus confirming that the training did not only enable Francesca to read words, but also allowed her to “learn to learn.” In other words, the girl did not only learn to read some words, but she actually learned reading in general.

Yet, these differences over the second condition showed a trend, but were not significant.

There is a slight trend for yellow circles to increase in proportion and for blue circles to decrease, and a much more prominent one for yellow triangles to increase at the expense of red, whilst for squares there is no consistent trend.

Multiple comparisons for the reward variant using Tukey's Honestly Significant Difference test showed that only the unidirectional instructions for seeking reward differed from the standard and no hint instructions; however, the significance levels of these variables were p = 0.08 and p = 0.09, respectively, indicating marginal significance.

From a neuroanatomical perspective, the restriction of a highly significant inhibition effect to the LH in the present study is consistent with fMRI studies reviewed by Kan and Thompson-Schill ( 2004 ).

Results from the model showed a highly significant effect of intercept [LM, F (1,128) = 67.59, p = < 0.001] and a tendency toward a significant difference between the age groups [LM, F (6,128) = 2.13, p = 0.054].

No other main effects or interactions in the exploratory ANOVA approached significance (Maximal F = 0.90, ns ).

No other interactions approached significance.

Data analysis indicated a significant WF effect and a marginally significant SF effect across repetitions.

In any case, we can be reassured that semantic priming did take place, since we obtained highly significant N400 differences between the Related and Unrelated conditions, thereby replicating classical N400 effects (e.g., Barrett and Rugg, 1990 ; Ganis et al., 1996 ; Kutas and Federmeier, 2011 ).

Regarding abstraction, it only exhibits a marginally significant negative association.

No individual cortical region showed an association with left-handedness that survived statistical correction for multiple testing, although there was a nominally significant association with the surface area of a previously implicated region: the left precentral sulcus.

Thus, even though one measure was only marginally significant, both indicate that infants in the point group anticipated the give outcome, but not the take outcome.

Still, this difference was only marginally significant, so it is assumed that the Early Bilinguals did form separate phonetic categories for their Spanish and English /l/s.

Family and peer cohesion in turn showed culture-specific associations to emotional well-being (indicated by at least marginally significant Wald χ 2 tests, see Table 3 ).
