Subclaims¶

q3 i? In the covariates-only mathematics model, girls (B = 0.24, p < .01) and FARM-enrolled students (B = 0.26, p < .01) had higher Time 2 mathematics anxiety, and higher Time 1 mathematics anxiety predicted higher Time 2 mathematics anxiety (B = 0.61, p < .01). → McLean 2023

Evidence¶

McLean 2023¶

McLean, L., Janssen, J., Espinoza, P., Lindstrom Johnson, S., & Jimenez, M. (2023). Associations Between Teacher and Student Mathematics, Science, and Literacy Anxiety in Fourth Grade. Journal of Educational Psychology. Advance online publication. https://doi.org/10.1037/edu0000790

q3 · i? · associational · r2

Covariates-only regression model for mathematics from the aim-specific analyses of 463 fourth-grade students. Unstandardized coefficients are printed (B = 0.24 sex; B = 0.26 FARM; B = 0.61 stability); no standardized effect sizes are reported, so impact is null.

"girls and students enrolled in FARM had higher Time 2 mathematics anxiety (B = 0.24, p < .01 for sex; B = 0.26, p < .01 for FARM) and higher Time 1 mathematics anxiety was associated with higher Time 2 mathematics anxiety (B = 0.61, p < .01)."
