In the paired t-test, you can define the difference as A-B, or as B-A. This flips the sign of the t-statistic and Cohen's d, and the two-sided p-values will be identical. Exercise: how does the one-sided p-value differ between the two ways of defining the difference? Does that make sense?
Descriptives
Raincloud Plots
The paired t-test raincloud plots show the two estimates side by side. For example, here we can see how the paired observations match with each other: some people judged their own iq as quite different from their neighbor's (steep grey lines connectin the observations), while most people had very similar estimates (i.e., flat grey lines).
