Subclaims¶

q3 i? No significant differences among conditions were found in metacomprehension-based regulation, comprehension-based regulation, or test scores for causal relations. → Pijeira-Díaz 2023

Evidence¶

Pijeira-Díaz 2023¶

Pijeira-Díaz, H. J., van de Pol, J., Channa, F., & de Bruin, A. (2023). Scaffolding self-regulated learning from causal-relations texts: Diagramming and self-assessment to improve metacomprehension accuracy? Metacognition and Learning, 18, 631–658. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11409-023-09343-0

q3 · i? · causal · r2

Supplementary analyses in the randomized experiment found "no significant differences among conditions in terms of test scores for relations"; regulation measures for relations and facts likewise showed no significant differences (e.g., p = .067 and p = .086).

"There were no significant differences among conditions in terms of test scores for relations, F(3, 2538) = 1.189, p = .130, η 2 p =0 .002."

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

• Metacognition — outcome: instruction changes it

Related Claims¶

• Diagramming scaffold also improves absolute metacomprehension accuracy for causal relations, extending the effect beyond relative accuracy — related
• Diagramming scaffold improves relative metacomprehension accuracy for causal relations in expository texts — related
• Pre-structured diagrams improved metacomprehension accuracy while self-assessment cues showed no differences — related
• Adding diagram self-assessment to diagram completion does not increase diagnostic cue utilization or metacomprehension accuracy beyond diagramming alone — related
• Neither rereading nor self-explanation changed comprehension test performance itself; effects were specific to monitoring accuracy — related
• Monitoring accuracy predicts comprehension-based regulation accuracy, and cue availability also has an indirect effect on regulation accuracy via monitoring accuracy — related
