Interaction of age group, direction of influence (prosocial vs.
selfish), and influence (influenced vs. not influenced) on response
times (RTs). In the top graph, age is shown as a categorical
variable. Colored squares show the fixed-effects estimates of RTs
from the trial-level linear mixed model. Error bars are the
corresponding 95% confidence intervals. Symbols indicate significant
and marginally significant differences between and within groups
(†p < .10, *p < .05,
***p < .001, Bonferroni corrected). For
statistics of all contrasts, see Tables S5a and S5b in the Supplemental Material available online. In the
bottom graph, age is shown as a continuous variable. Circles are
grand medians of RTs. Circle area is proportional to the number of
participants; the key shows three examples for reference. The lines
show the overall polynomial trends of age as estimated by a
trial-level generalized linear mixed model on the log of RTs (then
back-transformed to the response scale). The shaded area is the 95%
confidence interval. Asterisks indicate significant components of
the trends (dashed lines; *p < .05,
***p < .001). For statistics of all trend
contrasts, see Table S6 in the Supplemental Material.
