(a) Trend in raw effect size magnitudes (absolute lnRR) for each experiment in our dataset plotted as a function of year of publication online and color coded according to study. Data are fit with a Loess curve with 95% confidence bounds. (b) Mean effect size magnitude (absolute lnRR ± upper and lower confidence bounds) for each year of publication (online) in our dataset. Mean effect size magnitudes and confidence bounds were estimated using Bayesian simulations and a folded normal distribution. Note: Colors for (b) are aesthetic in nature and follow a gradient according to year of publication. Source data for each figure panel can be found in S1 Data . ES, effect size.
