failed to reach significancep = .08so close (0.05 < p ≤ 0.1)
However, this difference in the magnitude of the distraction effect between load failed to reach significance ( t (33) = −1.78, p = .08, d = −0.31).

For this experiment, there was some indication of a speed-accuracy trade-off for both the high and low load conditions (see Table 1 ), though this did not reach statistical significance.
