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? Challenge appraisal correlated positively and threat appraisal negatively with academic self-efficacy at both waves; threat appraisal correlated positively with attainment value at T1 but negatively at T3. → The appraisal of fear appeals as a challenge or a threat influences a subsequent decline or increase in attainment value and academic self-efficacy 2014
Evidence¶
The appraisal of fear appeals as a challenge or a threat influences a subsequent decline or increase in attainment value and academic self-efficacy 2014¶
The appraisal of fear appeals as a challenge or a threat influences a subsequent decline or increase in attainment value and academic self-efficacy. (2014). https://eric.ed.gov/?q=appraisal+of+fear+appeals+challenge+threat+attainment+value+academic+self-efficacy
q2 · i? · associational · r3
Latent bivariate correlations reported in Table 1 from the preliminary measurement-model analyses. Challenge and threat were positively intercorrelated, as were academic self-efficacy and attainment value at both waves; no standardised effect sizes beyond the correlations themselves are printed here.
"A challenge appraisal was positively correlated with, and a threat appraisal was negatively correlated with, academic self-efficacy (at both T1 and T3). A challenge appraisal was positively correlated with attainment value at both T1 and T3. However, a threat appraisal was positively correlated with attainment value at T1 but negative correlated with attainment value at T3."

Related Claims¶
- Gender and year group are associated with fear appeal appraisals and baseline academic self-efficacy — related
- Higher attainment value with higher academic self-efficacy predicts challenge appraisal, whereas higher attainment value with lower academic self-efficacy predicts threat appraisal — related
- Prior academic self-efficacy and attainment value do not cross-predict each other over the school year — related
