Plotting pre-post results in R

Image
A quick code to create a useful plot to visualise pre- and post-test results. I was inspired by this  post , this  post , and this  post . A scatterplot between pre-test and post-test scores for the control and the training group is presented. The straight black lines represent correlations between pre-test and post-test scores within the two groups. The straight lightgrey line represents the same values at pre-test and post-test –> Subjects above the line display a better performance at post-test compared to pre-test. At the margins, the boxplots are reported as well as the mean (i.e., diamond) and 95% confidence intervals (i.e., error bars). In the case of the post-test scores (plot on the right margin), the adjusted means (i.e., black triangles) and associated 95% confidence intervals (i.e., error bars) are reported. The table reports the results for the ANCOVA and its assumptions. In this example, participants in the training group show an improvement in a Working ...

Symposium at MCLS 2022

  “One”, ●●, 3, Four: The Emergence of Early Numerical Knowledge  Chair: Francesco Sella (1), Attila Krajcsi (2)  Early numerical knowledge strongly predicts later mathematical achievement. Yet, we have an unclear picture of how children progressively acquire such knowledge. This symposium brings together four studies that have implemented specific numerical and non-numerical tasks to unveil how different numerical competencies develop and interact. We provide evidence of the limited number knowledge in 5- and 6-knowers (Talk 1), the role of inhibition in moderating the relation between non-symbolic and symbolic number skills (Talk 2), the influence of non-symbolic and symbolic mapping on maths achievement (Talk 3), and the role of number ordering in early numerical development (Talk 4).  Keywords: Early numeracy, Counting, Preschool children, Number development, Symbolic number processing Intro slide.

Cold shower

Cold showers have been used for centuries as a way to invigorate the body and mind. While the idea of taking a cold shower may seem daunting to some, the benefits of cold showers are numerous and can lead to improved physical and mental health. In this blog post, we'll explore some of the benefits of cold showers and why you should consider incorporating them into your daily routine. Boosted Immune System Cold showers can help boost your immune system by increasing the production of white blood cells. These cells are responsible for fighting off infections and diseases, making them essential for maintaining good health. Cold showers also stimulate the lymphatic system, which is responsible for removing waste and toxins from the body. Improved Circulation Cold water causes your blood vessels to constrict, which helps to improve circulation. This can be particularly beneficial for those who suffer from poor circulation or conditions ...
