  1. All p values Bonferroni corrected for the number of tested pairs per study. r values in the Bayes Factor columns represent the scale factor of the Cauchy prior on the effect size. Compare to the middle row of Fig. 4. Abbreviations: Subj = Models that make choices about subjective values; Obj = Models that make choices about objective values.
