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.
q2 i? In Study 2 (n = 158), the a priori three-factor model showed acceptable fit (CFI = 0.92; RMSEA = 0.10; GFI = 0.92; SRMR = 0.07) with all items loading on their intended factor. → Krieglstein 2023
q2 i? Correlations with the Klepsch et al. (2017) questionnaire showed evidence for moderate convergent validity, with the lowest correlation for the GCL items. → Krieglstein 2023 (2)

q2 · i? · design · r3
Confirmatory factor analysis with robust ML estimation on 15 items, 158 Prolific participants rating a nerve-cell learning material. The article states "The initial model showed an acceptable fit of the data" with the printed indices.
"The initial model showed an acceptable fit of the data (CFI = 0.92; RMSEA = 0.10; GFI = 0.92; SRMR = 0.07). Factor loadings revealed that all items load on the intended factor ( p < 0.001)."

q2 · i? · design · r3
Convergent validity check in Study 2 correlating the proposed instrument with the Klepsch et al. (2017) questionnaire. The article reports "evidence for moderate convergent validity could be found", with ECL satisfactory, ICL lower but acceptable, and GCL lowest.
"In sum, evidence for moderate convergent validity could be found."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- The ACE-HE measurement model of affective, behavioral, and cognitive engagement fits online/blended survey data well — related
- Global-fit evidence does not clearly favor unidimensional over multidimensional academic resilience measurement models, as fit-index pass rates diverge by index — related
- The revised questionnaire shows satisfactory internal consistencies for each cognitive load type across Studies 1 and 2 — related
