Subclaims¶

q3 i? Males scored significantly higher on Openness to Experience and Extraversion than females. → Wen Wu 2019 q3 i? Students' age fails to show significant correlation with personality, and subject type shows no significant mean differences. → Wen Wu 2019 (2)

Evidence¶

Wen Wu 2019¶

Wen Wu, Li Chen, Qingchang Yang, You Li. (2019). Inferring Students' Personality from Their Communication Behavior in Web-based Learning Systems. International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40593-018-00173-9

q3 · i? · associational · r2

Two independent-sample t-tests on the 164-student cohort comparing personality trait scores by gender; only test statistics are printed, no effect size, so impact is null.

"through two independent sample t-test, we find that males scored significantly higher on Openness to Expe- rience (t(162)=2.899, p< 0.05) and Extraversion (t(162)=3.046, p< 0.05) than females"

q3 · i? · associational · r1

Null secondary analyses in the same cohort: Kendall's tau correlation of age with personality was not significant (p>0.05), and ANOVA across the three subject types showed no significant mean differences for any trait.

"our data reveal that students’ age fails to show significant correlation with their personality (p> 0.05 via Kendall’s tau Correlation)."

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

• Gender — predictor: outcomes differ by group: a gap reflecting circumstances and treatment, not a cause
