Evidence¶

Joanna Kic-Drgas 2024¶

Joanna Kic-Drgas, Ferit Kılıçkaya. (2024). Exploring novel approaches to digital self-regulated learning: a study on the use of mobile applications among Polish and Turkish EFL pre-service teachers. Education Tech Research Dev. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11423-024-10374-w

q2 · i? · associational · r1

Mann–Whitney U comparison of SRL engagement by gender in the two-country survey; "gender differences have been identified in the study (U = 2856, p = .002)". No effect size is printed for this finding.

"However, gender differences have been identified in the study (U = 2856, p = .002). Female participants, across both Polish and Turkish groups, tend to outperform male participants in online SRL."

q2 · i? · associational · r1

Mann–Whitney U test on age in the same survey found "a lack of substantial age differences among the participants (U = 3685, p = .304)"; the authors suggest maturity rather than age per se may play a role, echoing Tsai (2016).

"There seems to be a lack of substantial age differences among the participants (U = 3685, p = .304)."

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

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