Extraction report: shin2014timeconstraintspragmatic
Summary
- Extracted four fixed-time stakes contrasts from a paper whose main reported analyses are about time constraints, not stakes.
- Primary evidence used:
paper.yaml,out/bundle.json,out/fulltext.md,out/text.txt, andout/tei.xml. - Raw PDF was not used.
- Reproducible computations are documented in
papers/shin2014timeconstraintspragmatic/analysis/effect_sizes.qmdand rendered topapers/shin2014timeconstraintspragmatic/analysis/effect_sizes.html.
What was extracted
- Experiment 1 provides a low-stakes time contrast in the body text and a high-stakes time contrast partially recovered through TEI figure caption
fig_1. - Experiment 2 provides a high-stakes time contrast in the body text and an additional low-stakes time contrast only in footnote 32.
- To obtain meta-analytic high-vs-low stakes effects, I split the paper into four study records by holding time fixed:
- Experiment 1, Less-Time
- Experiment 1, More-Time
- Experiment 2, Less-Time
- Experiment 2, More-Time
Problems and uncertainties
Issue 1: Stakes effects are reconstructed, not directly reported
- The paper reports time effects within low-stakes and high-stakes variants, but it does not report direct high-vs-low stakes tests at fixed time.
- I therefore reconstructed four between-subjects stakes contrasts from reported group summaries and computed
d/vinanalysis/effect_sizes.qmd.
Human analyst response:
[If you disagree with using fixed-time reconstructed stakes contrasts as meta-analytic units, specify which of the four contrasts should be excluded.]
Issue 2: Experiment 1 high-stakes summaries come from TEI figure-caption artifact fig_1
- The processed outputs did not preserve the high-stakes Experiment 1 numeric summary as clean body text.
- The values
HS-LT: N = 39, Mean = 4.23, SD = 1.55andHS-MT: N = 43, Mean = 2.92, SD = 1.98were recovered fromout/tei.xmlfigure captionfig_1. - I marked the relevant group provenance with
table_ref: fig_1.
Human analyst response:
[If you want a second-pass confirmation against the PDF for the Experiment 1 high-stakes summary, note it here.]
Issue 3: Experiment 2 low-stakes pair is only summarized in footnote 32
- The low-stakes Peter pair is reported only as a short footnote summary:
Peter-Low-Stakes-Less-Time: N = 34, Mean = 1.85, SD = 0.857Peter-Low-Stakes-More-Time: N = 35, Mean = 2.71, SD = 1.29- The full low-stakes Peter vignette text is not recovered in the pipeline outputs; only the low-stakes comprehension probe survives in the appendix:
It isn't important that Peter has no typos in his paper. Even if there are some typos, it won't matter much. - Because of that, I set
effect_size.needs_review: truefor the two Experiment 2 effects and leftmoderators.awareness: nullthere.
Human analyst response:
[If you can supply the full low-stakes Peter vignette wording from the PDF or another source, place it here for a second-pass extraction.]

Feasibility call
The paper is conditionally feasible for inclusion in a stakes meta-analysis, but not as a clean primary stakes study.
- Experiment 1 is usable with moderate confidence because both low- and high-stakes condition summaries are recoverable and the stakes contrasts are numerically unambiguous.
- Experiment 2 is weaker because the low-stakes pair is only summarized in footnote 32 and the full low-stakes vignette wording is not recovered in pipeline outputs.
My recommendation is:
- include the Experiment 1 reconstructed stakes contrasts in the main dataset only if your protocol allows fixed-time post hoc stakes contrasts from factorial condition summaries;
- treat the Experiment 2 contrasts as sensitivity-only unless a human analyst confirms the missing low-stakes vignette wording from the PDF.
