Subclaims¶

q2 i2 Post-test correlated with total response time to questions (r = 0.27), accuracy (r = 0.37), and motivation (r = 0.22), but not with total reading time of explanations (r = 0.10). → Ozcelik 2013 q2 i2 Motivation correlated positively with accuracy (r = 0.31) and response time (r = 0.19), but not with reading time of explanations. → Ozcelik 2013

Evidence¶

Ozcelik 2013¶

Ozcelik, E., Ercil Cagiltay, N., & Sahin Ozcelik, N. (2013). The effect of uncertainty on learning in game-like environments. Computers & Education, 67, 12–20. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compedu.2013.02.009

q2 · i2 · causal · r2

Pearson correlation analyses (n = 140) on the game experiment's behavioral measures found "higher total response time to the questions, accuracy, and motivation were correlated with higher post-test scores"; Table 4 prints r = 0.27, r = 0.37, and r = 0.22 respectively, while reading time was not significant (r = 0.10).

"The higher total response time to the questions, accuracy, and motivation were correlated with higher post-test scores. However, the correlation between the total reading time of explanations and the post-test found not to be statistically significant."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Post-test scores correlate with motivation, response time, reading time and in-game accuracy — reports the opposite
• Path analysis supports an indirect path from competition through motivation and in-game accuracy to post-test scores — related
• No significant group differences in motivation, accuracy, response time, or reading time between uncertain and certain groups — related
• Motivation is positively related to accuracy and response time during game-based learning — related
• Post-test performance is positively associated with accuracy, response time, uncertainty, and motivation — possibly the same claim (merge candidate)
