Subclaims¶

q3 i? The MANOVA showed an interaction effect between conscientiousness level and score on the usage of advice and slant; when conscientiousness is low, advice is used for scores 10% to 70% inclusive, whereas for high conscientiousness advice is not used for 70%. → Matt Dennis 2016

q3 · i? · causal · r?

Interaction effect (trait-level x score) from the 2-way MANOVA and post-hoc pairwise comparisons in the conscientiousness experiment. The authors state "when conscientiousness is low, advice is used for 10 % to 70 % inclusive, which contrasts with high conscientiousness, where Advice is not used for 70 %".

"This indicates that when conscientiousness is low, advice is used for 10 % to 70 % inclusive, which contrasts with high conscientiousness, where Advice is not used for 70 %."

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

• Personality Traits — moderator: an instructional effect differs with it

Related Claims¶

• The type of emotional support and slant given to a learner depends on the score the learner achieved (Experiment 1: conscientiousness) — a broader claim this one bears on
• In the emotional stability experiment, emotional support use and slant depend on score, trait level, and their interaction — related
