“…In Vohs et al's study, estimations that were within the 25-75th percentile interval of this norm sample received two points, answers within the 5-24th or the 76-95th percentiles received one point, and answers outside these intervals received zero points. How arbitrary this scoring system is, becomes even more apparent given the fact that in another ego depletion study, the participants within the 90% response range (rather than in the 95% response range; Vohs et al, 2021) of the norm sample were awarded one point (Schmeichel et al, 2003). From all this, it follows that, at best, the CET can identify the (maybe clinically relevant) tendency to give more or less untypical estimations, whereby the reasons for such deviations are unknown.…”
