Results of tests for strong stochastic transitivity. (The preference order was broken into triplets, and the extreme parings of each triplet were compared with the adjacent parings using a one-sided Fisher's exact test. p-values < 0.05 do not satisfy strong stochastic transitivity. *5L and 3L were tied in ranking, so a triplet was constructed using both values.)
