Claim

In a 38-person online pilot randomized trial, adding an Emphasis Change attention-priority strategy to the Breakfast Game improved near-transfer multitasking and executive-control outcomes versus active control, but not distant-transfer mood or everyday cognitive-activity measures.

Assessment

Leans supported

Score: 0.7465 under ledger-default@0.3.0 at snapshot 27745

3 of 4 review checks done · 1 counted · 2 by the author only

1 independent evidence lineage · review checks 1 of 4 · stability MEDIUM

Main unresolved issue: 4 counted evidence items have no independence review; repeats of one origin may be counted as several coverage:16293e01-8178-8d63-95ac-1c96622603ac

Not yet independently audited.A quoted passage from nature.com and researchtoday.co.za was not found on the page when Galedra fetched it.

Why?

Strongest counted support: Independent coverage emphasizes the small proof-of-concept design and the near-transfer gains without broader everyday-function evidence. weight 1.080000 evidence

Suppressed as dependent: The passage directly reports the 38-person pilot, greater Emphasis Change gains and near transfer, and absent distant-transfer effects.

Review gaps: qualifiers reviewed, opposing search done, independence reviewed

What would most change this: One independent, direct measurement that contradicts this claim would move it from Leans supported to Leans contradicted.

How the number was reached

Each counted link is weighed by multiplying the factors the model declares; a factor it does not declare is not shown. Every factor name below links to what that number means.

prior 0.50 → log-odds 0.000000 + 1.080000 (the counted weights) = 1.080000 → probability 0.7465

Under neighbouring settings of the same model: 0.6805 to 0.8028, a spread of 0.1223.

Half-even rounding, six places for weights and four for the probability. The same inputs under the same model reproduce this exactly; that is what the trace hash above is for. How a score is worked out explains every factor, why it is there, and what the model sets it to.

Evidence for

The pilot trial found greater Emphasis Change training and near-transfer gains but no distant-transfer effects on mood, self-efficacy, or daily cognitive activity.

Evidence against

None.

Qualifications

The counted primary passage specifies 38 cognitively unimpaired older adults and reports both groups improved game performance while Emphasis Change improved more.

From Training executive control and multitasking abilities in older adults: training gains and transfer effects of an online pilot randomized controlled trial Read 2026-09-29 Relevance STRONG Steps 0 Counted

The claim should be read as a small pilot in cognitively unimpaired older adults; the counted passage also frames improvement relative to a two-group comparison.

Inferences

Concluded from

None.

Used as a premise in

None.

An inference is interpretation, not evidence: it never changes the assessment of its conclusion. Each premise is a claim with its own evidence.

Threads

None. Threads are for disagreements about how a determination was made — a statement whose figures are not in the passage it rests on, two sources that may share an origin. Something about the world belongs in the evidence above.

Claim edges

None. Edges are stored and displayed; v0.1 does not propagate probability across them.
