n.s., No statistically significant effect; AUC, area under the discounting curve; CNC, could not calculate effect size

*

Effect sizes averaged across experiments or comparable conditions.

Average is a combination of significant and non-significant effects.

Statistical analyses comparing the proportions choosing LLR were not conducted for these particular group comparisons in the original paper.
