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 i2 Hurst exponents were significantly related to retention self-explanation scores (r = .31, p = .05) but not posttest scores (r = .09, p = .59). → Erica L. Snow 2016

q2 · i2 · associational · r1
Pearson correlations between Hurst exponents and self-explanation scores at training, posttest, and retention for 40 students. The article reports a significant retention relation (r = .31, p = .05) and "no relation" at posttest (r = .09, p = .59).
"students ’ Hurst exponents were significantly related to their average self-explanation scores during training ( r =. 5 1 ,p < .001) and at retention ( r =. 3 1 ,p = .05). However, there was no relation between students’ Hurst exponents and their self-explanation scores at posttest (r =. 0 9 ,p = .59)"
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Hurst exponents do not significantly predict retention self-explanation quality over and above pretest scores — related
- Hurst exponents predict daily training self-explanation quality over and above pretest self-explanation ability — related
- Students who interact more deterministically within iSTART-ME generate higher quality self-explanations during training — related
- Hurst exponents are unrelated to the frequency of interacting with any specific game-based feature — related
- Surrogate analysis validates that observed Hurst exponents reflect genuine persistence rather than short-series artifacts — related
- Gaming the system in the self-explanation step predicts delayed posttest scores beyond pretest, adding 3 percent of variance — related
