Participant education data and scores, based on basic knowledge of evolution before and after the activity, and prediction of evolution outcomes. Blue data refer to sighted participants and black data to participants with visual impairment. a Depicts the relationship between participants age and education level. Lines visualize the linear model per participant category and vertical dashed lines mark the average age of each group. b Refer to the scores of true or false questions on basic evolution concepts applied before and after the MSToL activities. Lines show the correlation between before and after score. For sighted participants (blue) and visually impaired participants (black), R squared values are depicted from a regression analysis with ‘Score after the activity’ dependent on ‘Score before the activity’. c Visualizes participants’ predictive ability in scenarios where environments shape phenotypic responses, following the same color code
