Average prediction for Cloveritol and no treatment at test (± standard error of the mean) (left) and efficacy ratings for treatment relative to no treatment (right) as a function of outcome density. Average predictions were made on a scale from 0 (no improvement) to 100 (full recovery), whereas efficacy ratings were made from a scale of −100 (effectively worsens recovery) to +100 (effectively improves recovery) with a midpoint of 0 (completely ineffective). Negative efficacy ratings indicate that the drug makes patients feel worse, whereas positive values suggest the drug improves patient recovery. OD outcome density
