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 i3 Experimental 2 groups produced significantly higher average originality in the group phase than experimental 1 groups. → Farrokhnia 2024
q3 i? Sharing individually generated ideas did not increase group-phase flexibility, and flexibility did not mediate the group-phase originality effect (H5, H6 rejected). → Farrokhnia 2024
Evidence¶
Farrokhnia 2024¶
Farrokhnia, M., Noroozi, O., Baggen, Y., Biemans, H., & Weinberger, A. (2024). Improving hybrid brainstorming outcomes with computer-supported scaffolds: Prompts and cognitive group awareness. Computers & Education 227 (2025) 105229. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compedu.2024.105229
q3 · i3 · causal · r2
Group-level ANCOVA comparing 11 triads per experimental condition in the group phase. The originality difference was significant (F(1,19) = 6.37, p = .02, ηp² = 0.25); fluency, flexibility, and persistence showed no significant differences (p = .26, .77, .13).
"The average originality of ideas generated in experimental 2 condition (Adjusted M = 2.91, SE = 0.26) was shown to be significantly higher than those in experimental 1 condition (Adjusted M = 2.62, SE = 0.23), thus confirming H4"
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Creativity — outcome: instruction changes it

- Cognitive group awareness support during the group phase carries over to improve originality, fluency, and flexibility in the subsequent individual phase — related
- Flexibility mediates the effect of cognitive group awareness on originality in the subsequent individual phase, acting as a complementary mediator — related
- SCAMPER prompts marginally increase persistence of individually generated ideas in hybrid brainstorming — related
