Every fitlme-based report (lme_*, paper_*, phase_*, and the variations' analyze.m) now shows, per effect: residual-DF p, Satterthwaite-DF p, and -- for the interaction -- an HONEST test from a per-animal random-SLOPE model (day|rat), whose Satterthwaite DF collapses toward the animal count. New: tdcs_random_slope_interaction.m (shared helper). Wired into tdcs_lme, tdcs_paper_lme, tdcs_phase_lme, variation_analyze; SUMMARY.csv gains interaction_p_satt / interaction_p_rs. Regenerated all results/, variations/, matched-effort outputs. Key point this surfaces: Satterthwaite ~= residual on the random-INTERCEPT model (the slope's error is at session level), so it does NOT fix pseudoreplication; the random-slope model does. Effect: full-range mergeA2 interaction 0.009 -> 0.75 (collapses); unmerge_d0_5 0.015 -> 0.13 (n.s.); the pooled-control early windows survive honestly (naive_a2_d0_5 0.001 -> 0.028; naive_boxa_d0_5 0.003 -> 0.036).

HONEST LME -- per-rat random slope (day|rat): interaction F(1,11.4)=0.92, p=0.3565
|
|
Satterthwaite DF on the random-INTERCEPT model above stays ~= residual (the
|
|
slope's error is at session level), so it does NOT fix pseudoreplication. A per-animal
|
|
random slope collapses the interaction DF toward the animal count -- the honest test.
|
|
|
|
INTERPRETATION
|
|
- stim x day interaction: SIGNIFICANT (p=0.0076, slope diff=+1.58) -> tDCS (Box-B2) improves FASTER -- benefit accumulates over training.
|
|
- stim main effect on Day 1 (our day 0): n.s. (p=0.2062) -> groups are comparable on Day 1.
|
|
|
|
