Language Control After Phrasal Planning: Playing Whack-a-Mole with Language Switch Costs.
Article in Journal of memory and language, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Spanish-English (Experiments 1-2) or Chinese-English (Experiment 3) bilinguals described arrays of moving pictures in English that began with a complex or a simple phrase (e.g., "[The shoe and the mesa/] moved above the cloud" vs. "[The shoe] moved above the mesa/ and the cloud"). Bilinguals were trained to name the second picture in English for half the objects (e.g., "table") and Spanish/Chinese (e.g., "mesa"/"") the other half. In complex-initial sentences, production durations of "shoe" and "and" were longer on switch than nonswitch trials; in simple-initial sentences, in Experiments 1-2, speech rate was not affected by switching until "mesa" was produced, and in Experiment 3 not until "above" was produced. Thus, bilinguals paid language switch costs just before or just as they started to produce a phrase with a language switch in it, suggesting that bilinguals complete phrasal planning in the default language before switching to the nondefault language.
