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? In the regression models, emotional support contributed no significant additional variance to any child outcome (all Step 4 changes insignificant). → Heyi Zhang 2014
Evidence¶

Heyi Zhang, David Whitebread. (2014). Linking parental scaffolding with self-regulated learning in Chinese kindergarten children. Faculty of Education, University of Cambridge. https://www.repository.cam.ac.uk
q3 · i? · associational · r1
Step 4 of the four hierarchical regression models entered emotional support after contingency; the printed Step 4 changes were △R2=.00 for all four models. The article frames this as supporting hypothesis H4 and inconsistent with Western studies.
"Inconsistently with Western 15 findings, parental emotional support was not an independent predictor of children ’s 16 SRL in the present study."
