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? Being female predicted membership of the attentive disinterested profile (β = -2.79, OR = .06) and the attentive disaffected profile (β = -.90, OR = .41) but not the disengaged profile, compared to the engaged reference profile. → Symonds 2021
q2 i? Being Irish predicted membership of the attentive disaffected profile (β = -1.05, OR = .35) and the disengaged profile (β = -1.30, OR = .27) compared to the engaged profile. → Symonds 2021 (2)
q2 i? Age and perceived family economic advantage showed no notable differences between the engaged profile and the other profiles tested. → Symonds 2021 (3)

q2 · i? · associational · r2
Multinomial logistic regression on the four largest profiles (engaged as reference) from the 196-student single-task sample. "Being female predicted being in the attentive disinterested profile (β = -2.79, OR = .06, p = < .001)", with the disengaged profile not predicted by gender. No standardized effect size was printed.
"Being female predicted being in the attentive disinterested profile (β = -2.79, OR = .06, p = < .001) and the attentive disaffected profile (β = -.90, OR = .41, p = < .001) but not the disengaged profile."

q2 · i? · associational · r2
Same multinomial logistic regression with individual characteristics entered simultaneously as controls. "Being Irish predicted being in the attentive disaffected profile (β = -1.05, OR = .35, p = < .001)" and the disengaged profile, relative to the engaged reference profile. No standardized effect size was printed.
"Being Irish predicted being in the attentive disaffected profile (β = -1.05, OR = .35, p = < .001) and the disengaged profile (β = -1.30, OR = .27, p = < .01)."

q2 · i? · associational · r2
In the same regression, "There were no age nor perceived economic differences between students in the engaged profile and the other three profiles"; no effect sizes were printed for these null findings, so equivalence was not tested.
"There were no age nor perceived economic differences between students in the engaged profile and the other three profiles."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Classmate cognitive engagement, but not classmate behavioral or emotional engagement, predicts individual momentary engagement profile membership — related
- Internally divergent momentary engagement profiles occur within a single task, with students attentive yet emotionally and cognitively disengaged — related
- Lower academic self-efficacy is associated with membership of three less engaged momentary-engagement profiles and lower peer support with two, while educational goals and family support do not differ across the four profiles tested — related
- Seven profiles of momentary (dis)engagement emerge among adolescents completing the same ten-minute literacy task — a broader claim this one bears on
- Cluster membership is significantly associated with grade level but not gender — related
