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? Greater day-to-day variability in WM performance was associated with lower fluid intelligence. → Dirk 2016
Evidence¶
Dirk 2016¶
Dirk, Judith; Schmiedek, Florian. (2016). Fluctuations in elementary school children's working memory performance in the school context. The journal of educational psychology 108 (2016) 5, S. 722-739. https://doi.org/10.1037/edu0000076
q3 · i? · associational · r?
Correlational finding from the ambulatory assessment study of Grade 3 and 4 students; the article reports more day-to-day variability "was associated with lower fluid intelligence". No effect size is printed.
"more day-to-day variability was associated with lower fluid intelligence."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- More variable WM performance at all timescales is related to lower school achievement — related
- Synchronous observed-variable correlations between WMC and intelligence are modest (r = 0.17 to 0.40), lower than latent-variable correlations — related
