Figure 1
Summary of how many people passed the training phase for each constellation of tasks.
Table 1
Correlation coefficients and Bayes Factors between the tasks, including only participants (N = 16) who learned all tasks to criterion.
Note: SLRT = Salzburger Lese- und Rechtschreibtest (standardised reading test), PAL = Paired Associate Learning, Orth1 = first artificial orthography, Orth2 = second artificial orthography. Bold cells indicate BF > 3, and italics indicate BF < 1/3.

Figure 2
Scatterplot of reading ability (words and pseudowords) and the number of training run-throughs that the participants completed for the second orthography, coloured by whether or not they passed the training phase after the fifth run-through. The vertical line represents the 15th percentile cut-off according to SLRT adult norms.
Table 2
Correlations between accuracy on the second artificial orthography for each training block and all other variables, N = 55.
Note: Pearson’s correlation coefficient, Bayes Factor in brackets. Bold font signifies evidence for the presence of a correlation, italics signifies evidence for the absence of a correlation. Orth2 = the second artificial orthography, Orth1 = the first artificial orthography, PAL = Paired Associate Learning, SLRT = Salzburger Lese- und Rechtschreibtest (standardised reading test).
