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? In Experiment 1 (CLT text), the application instruction group did not differ in overestimation from the other two conditions, contrary to H2.4. → Knellesen 2024

Knellesen 2024¶
Knellesen, J., Händel, M., & Golke, S. (2024). Effects of reading instructions on pre-service teachers' judgment bias when learning from texts. Metacognition and Learning. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11409-023-09371-w
q3 · i? · causal · r?
Testing phase of Experiment 1, CLT text: contrast analysis between instruction groups on application performance bias. The article reports that "participants in the application instruction group did not differ in their overestimation from students in the other two conditions"; all three groups showed significant overestimation.
"However, contrary to H2.4, participants in the application instruction group did not differ in their overestimation from students in the other two conditions, t(63) < 1, p = .521."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Under general reading instructions, pre-service teachers significantly overestimate their application test performance — related
- Text topic moderates judgment bias: the CLT text produced higher overconfidence for application performance than the CVT text — related
- Application reading instructions lead students to spend longer reading the text than general or memory instructions — related
