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.
q2 i? Across all fifteen courses, the Disengaged engagement state showed a consistent, statistically significant association with the Low achievement state. → Mohammed Saqr 2023
Evidence¶

Mohammed Saqr, Sonsoles López-Pernas, Satu Helske, Stefan Hrastinski. (2023). The longitudinal association between engagement and achievement varies by time, students' profiles, and achievement state: A full program study. Computers & Education. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compedu.2023.104787
q2 · i? · associational · r1
Multi-way contingency mosaic plot of engagement states against achievement states in each of the fifteen courses, visualizing observed versus expected frequencies with signed cells. The analysis found "a consistent and statistically significant as-sociation between disengagement and low achievement in all the courses"; no effect size is printed for this association.
"In summary, there was a consistent and statistically significant as-sociation between disengagement and low achievement in all the courses, as well as a statistically significant high association between active engagement and high achievement in most of the courses."
