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.
q2 i? Profile membership differed by gender (χ²(4) = 12.14, p = 0.02), with more boys than expected among disconnected students and more girls than expected among diligent students. → Sedova 2023
Evidence¶
Sedova 2023¶
Sedova, K., & Sedlacek, M. (2023). How vocal and silent forms of participation in combination relate to student achievement. Instructional Science, 51, 343–361. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11251-022-09609-1
q2 · i? · associational · r2
Chi-square test of profile membership by gender in the clustered sample, with adjusted standardized residuals identifying the deviating groups. Socioeconomic status (HISEI), by contrast, showed no significant difference between profiles (F = 2.21, p = 0.07).
"The results of cross tabulation and the chi-square test indicated that gender was unevenly distributed among the profile groups (χ 2 (df 4) = 12.14, p = 0.02). The findings suggested that the proportion of boys was higher than expected among disconnected students (adjusted standardized residual = 2.6), and the proportion of girls was higher than expected in the diligent students (adjusted standardized residual = 2.9)."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Trajectory patterns of teacher-student warmth and conflict differ between boys and girls, with a high-stable conflict class found only for boys
- Low warmth trajectories predict lower achievement gains for boys but not for girls
- The inverse relation between mathematics and reading sex differences also holds within nations across the performance continuum
- Eager students (high talk, high engagement) achieved the best reading literacy scores and disconnected students (low talk, low engagement) the worst, with only the eager–disconnected difference statistically significant — related
- Cluster membership is significantly associated with gender, with a small-to-moderate effect (χ²(5) = 345.52, Cramér's V = 0.157) — related
- Graduation rates by age 19 in Chicago varied substantially by race/ethnicity and gender, with African-American boys lowest (39 percent) and Asian girls highest (85 percent) — related
- Post-training GenAI use patterns were unevenly distributed: efficient collaborators were the largest profile (47.5%), followed by over-revisers (26.2%) and mixed users (21.2%) — related
- Cluster membership is significantly associated with grade level but not gender — reports the opposite
- Teachers' SRL competence profiles do not differ by gender, age, or teaching experience — reports the opposite
- Studies reporting age and gender differences in student engagement unanimously show higher engagement for girls and younger students — related
