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 i? Grade 5 stereotype awareness was significantly and negatively related to achievement growth in the combined track (b = −0.314, p = 0.046), but effects did not differ significantly between tracks. → Lisa Bardach 2023
Evidence¶
Lisa Bardach 2023¶
Lisa Bardach, Claudia Neuendorf, Kou Murayama, Thorsten Fahrbach, Michel Knigge, Benjamin Nagengast, and Ulrich Trautwein. (2023). Does students' awareness of school-track-related stereotypes exacerbate inequalities in education? npj Science of Learning 8:59. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41539-023-00203-9
q3 · i? · associational · r3
RQ4 paths from the multigroup growth curve models for achievement; the article notes the effect sizes in the three tracks were very similar and the constrained model did not fit significantly worse, so the effect did not differ significantly between tracks.
"Initial levels of stereotypes were further significantly and negatively related to developmental trajectories in achievement, when initial levels of achievement were controlled for, in the combined track (b = −0.314, p = 0.046; RQ4)"
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Stereotype Threat — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes
Related Claims¶
- In the lowest track, initial stereotype awareness was positively related to initial achievement, consistent with the missed-opportunities hypothesis — related
- Track-related stereotypes exist among secondary students, but changes in stereotype awareness were not consistently related to changes in engagement, self-perceived ability, or achievement — related
- Changes in stereotype awareness were not significantly related to changes in academic achievement, self-concept, or engagement in any track, contradicting the amplifier-of-inequality hypothesis — reports the opposite
