Higher values of ρ would lead to more , leading to more overlap than observed in this work.
in the easier mismatched D+C condition, it is outperformed by the CI model due to behavior differences among participants, which the EDO model small groups and large groups, represented in their study by K = 5 and K = 10, and noted that there is a smooth transition between the two extremes; this provides some scope for interpolating small-and large-group models, and the EDO framework makes this possible.
