a Mean confidence ratings for each depth probe response in the SART for high confidence subjects, who rated their confidence as 4 or 5 (out of 5) for depth ratings of 5 (ns = 61–65 per confidence rating). b Mean confidence ratings for each depth probe response in the SART for low confidence subjects, who rated their confidence as 1 or 2 (out of 5) for depth ratings of 5 (ns = 67–70 per confidence rating). For both panels, the depth report response scale was labeled: (1) Completely on-task; (2) Mostly on-task; (3) Both on the task and off-task; (4) Mostly off-task; (5) Completely off-task. Box plots present the 25th, 50th, and 75% percentiles; whiskers extend to the smallest and largest values within 1.5 times the inter-quartile range. Means are presented as triangles; black lines connect means and green lines connect medians. Each dot represents an individual subject’s M confidence rating for that depth rating
