Subclaims

Reading the evidence codes

q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.

This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.

q3 i? Making high-confidence errors did not predict epistemic anxiety, whereas incorrect answers regardless of confidence increased anxiety and correct answers increased pride. → Berweger 2023

Evidence

Berweger, B., Kracke, B., & Dietrich, J. (2023). Preservice Teachers' Epistemic and Achievement Emotions When Confronted With Common Misconceptions About Education. https://doi.org/10.1037/edu0000792

q3 · i? · associational · r1

Same Bayesian Model 1 (accuracy x confidence interaction) in the 275-participant sample. The interaction for anxiety had a credibility interval comprising zero; separately, "wrong answers as such (regardless of participants’ confidence in them) resulted in higher anxiety (-.238 [-.297, -.179])" and pride was higher after correct answers (1.166 [1.114, 1.218]).

"Contrary to H1a, making high-confidence errors was unrelated to the experience of epistemic anxiety (-.039 [-.080, .000])."

q3 · i? · associational · r1

Model 1 main effect of accuracy on pride in the same 275-participant multilevel analysis; the printed coefficient is an unstandardized beta, so no standardized effect size is available.

"Pride was higher though after positive achievement feedback (correct answers) (1.166 [1.114, 1.218])"
