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? There was no difference in impact on awareness, attitudes, or behavior between the simulated-profile and own-profile conditions. → Vanderhoven 2015

Evidence

Vanderhoven 2015

Vanderhoven, E., Schellens, T., Vanderlinde, R., & Valcke, M. (2015). Developing educational materials about risks on social network sites: A design-based research approach. Ghent University. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11423-015-9415-4

q3 · i? · design · r3

ANCOVA analysis of 80 pupils (average age 15.64) comparing the revised intervention using pupils' own profiles against the previous simulated-profile intervention; all comparisons non-significant (p > .02).

"the quantitative results of the study showed that there was no difference in impact on the awareness, attitudes and behavior of the pupils between the two conditions and therefore that there was no added value of making the context more authentic by using their own profiles"
