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.
q3 i2 Absolute monitoring accuracy showed a significant group-by-time interaction, but with opposite directions at different time points (HC < LC at Kahoot 2; LC < HC at Kahoot 5), which the authors interpret as no meaningful difference. → Daniell DiFrancesca 2025

Daniell DiFrancesca, Dan Spencer. (2025). The effects of competitive classroom activities on undergraduates with varied levels of competitive preference. Instructional Science. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11251-025-09741-8
q3 · i2 · associational · r1
A 2x8 mixed ANOVA on absolute accuracy (η2 = 0.043 interaction) decomposed into opposite-sign differences at two Kahoots; there were "no significant differences across time in either" group and no between-group difference.
"Results showed a significant interaction between group and time, F(7, 350) = 2.26, p =.029, η2 = 0.043. The interaction was decomposed and showed a significant difference between the HC and LC groups at the second (HC < LC; p =.008) and fifth (LC < HC; p =.028) Kahoots."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Metacognitive monitoring bias during competitive Kahoots did not differ by competitive preference, though bias shifted across time — related
- Kahoot performance over a semester did not differ between high- and low-competitive undergraduates, though scores varied across time points — related
- WMPT accuracy, confidence, Bias Index and Absolute Accuracy Index all change significantly with task difficulty — related
- Students across competitive-preference levels reported enjoying the Kahoot activities consistently throughout the semester, with no detectable wear-out effect — related
- The relationship between Kahoot performance and quiz scores differed by competitiveness only on the first quiz, and was not replicated later in the semester — related
- Monitoring accuracy score does not moderate the effort–monitoring correlation — related
