The linguistic consequences may be significant, with the “kid mob” a potentially dominant force in community language shift whereby younger speakers may even socialize adults in language choice (see Luykx, 2005 and Gafaranga, 2010 ).
Excerpts
The only relationship that approached significance was a negative correlation with Fantasy, suggesting that people with high IA tend not put themselves in the position of characters in books and films, which might perhaps reflect good self/other distinction.
The data, however, showed a tendency for a right-anterior late positivity between 700 and 1000 ms, which was almost significant.
Although most children showed a trend toward linear NL estimation across time, the changes were not captured by their latent growth models.
These findings are in line with our study, in which anosmic patients revealed statistically significant poorer vividness of mental representations and the hyposmic group showed a trend of reduced vividness of olfactory representations compared to healthy controls.
Our results further expand on these results in two ways: (1) by demonstrating that a syntactically similar intervener, but not an intervening clausal boundary, increases activation in Broca's area, its right homolog, and the basal ganglia, (2) a clausal boundary further increases complexity of a movement dependency, as evidenced by a marginally significant behavioral effect on offline RTs to verification questions and increased activation within the SFG and to some degree the left superior temporal cortex.
This indicates that accuracy demonstrated a decreasing trend with increasing distance even though direct contrasts did not turn out significant.
Abstract An increasing trend in the workplace is for employees to walk on treadmills while working to attain known health benefits; however, the effect of walking on a treadmill during cognitive control and executive function tasks is not well known.
Finally, it should also be noted that despite that the patterns of results were in line with our hypotheses, some of the effects were just marginally significant.
However, neither the fatalistic determinism × distal intent interaction (β = −0.03, p = 0.56) nor the fatalistic determinism × proximal intent interaction (β = −0.27, p = 0.63) approached significance.
As our main findings pertaining to the temperature measure reached marginal significance, we are hesitant to draw firm conclusions, and suggest future explorations in this area to consider an even bigger sample size.
In contrast, mean differences between women and men were highly significant for each measure of perceived ability under challenge in mathematics.
Entropy showed a marginally significant interaction revealing the same trend as roughness which did not survive multiple comparisons (Figure 2 , central panels).
The group difference with respect to the risk-taking behavior was only marginally significant (e.g., Cohen, 1992 ).
In addition, the correlational analysis only showed a trend for a positive relationship between task difficulty and conflict adaptation in the flanker task.
There was a marginally significant difference on the measure of objective ambivalence, showing stronger effects for abstract topics.
(Only Emotionality showed a marginally significant contribution to the prediction to CN.) To examine the mediating roles played by CN and CH in the relations of the two personality variables (Honesty–Humility and Openness to Experience) with the three outcome variables (i.e., pro-environmental attitudes, pro-animal attitudes, and ecological behaviors), we expanded the above model three times, each time by adding one of the latter three variables but omitting the other two (see Figure 2 ).
The need for inhibitory control and the processing of reward- and/or punishment-related cues are two functional task components that might be significant vis-a-vis the sex difference.
No other effects reached or even approached significance level.
This is because we have a large number of multiple comparisons (16), and we are looking for many that might be significant.
The underadditive interactions in this dataset were also marginally significant in the GLMM analyses using the inverse link function.
Among personality traits, we found almost significant relationships: adaptation to school rules and impulsiveness control were negatively related to tension (Q 4 ) r tension-adaptation = -0.50, r tension-impulsiviness = 0.62, p < 0.05.
Meanwhile, the total effect of MS on perceived persuasiveness was significant; the direct effect when both mediators were included was only marginally significant (see Figure 1 ).
Furthermore, though only marginally significant, children's precursor skills in preschool were linked to their later reading skills in primary school, with this effect again being mediated by children's reading related motivation, b = 0.17, SE = 0.09, β = 0.06, p = 0.070, d = 0.60.
The authors showed that Emotional awareness was the only scale that showed a specific—even if marginally significant—positive relation with the trait anxiety measure, despite its negative association with anxiety measures in a simple correlational analysis.
