if only that were the truth. sadly not, no data spoofing involved.
the illustration is accurate. you're right about the better control, we may do that if we replicate the study... but really I don't think the absence of writing on the neutral tape can explain the findings.
You're welcome to see the data if you like - we ran it by two independent statisticians to make sure our sample size was large enough... n = 178, in a 2 condition study, really isn't too bad. The important point here is…
In fact n= 178, which is more than enough for a study with only 2 conditions.
