Key differences in significance were that the previously significant effects of attitude accessibility (β = .04, 95% CI = [−0.01, 0.09], p = .13), social desirability (β = .04, 95% CI = [−0.01, 0.09], p = .15), rated ease of representation (β = −.061, 95% CI = [−0.16, −0.03], p = .20), anticipated regret ( Q = 2.77, p = .10), and behavior domain ( Q = 5.59, p = .23) on the QBE became non-significant, and the previously significant effect of question type became marginally significant ( Q = 5.197, p = .07).

No other two groups were significantly different ( p s > .1), although the difference in effect size between studies targeting prosocial versus miscellaneous other behaviors approached significance ( Q = 3.20, p = .07).
