Text

We define two effects to be “shared in sign” if they have the same sign; we define them to be “shared in magnitude” if they also have an effect within a factor of 2 of one another. (In some applications it may make sense to drop the requirement that effects are of the same sign when assessing sharing by magnitude, but not here.)
