Note. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences from the No Reinforcement group with post hoc tests (* p < .05, ** p < .01, *** p < .001).
The Abstinence & Training Reinforcement and Training Reinforcement groups were not different from one another on any of these outcome measures. n.s. = not statistically significant.
Means and one-way ANOVAs (F values) are reported for ratio scale outcome measures that passed Levene’s Median Test, while medians and Kruskal-Wallis ANOVAs (H values) are reported for ordinal measures or those that did not pass Levene’s Median Test.
The probability that a random member of the Abstinence & Training Reinforcement or Training Reinforcement group performed better than a random member of the No Reinforcement group.
Ordinal outcome measure.
Did not pass Levene’s Median Test.
