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 i1 Lockdown significantly predicted disengagement (β = 0.12, p = .01) but did not significantly predict self-efficacy. → Martin Andrew J. 2023
Evidence¶
Martin Andrew J. 2023¶
Martin Andrew J., Ginns Paul, Collie Rebecca J. (2023). University students in COVID-19 lockdown: The role of adaptability and fluid reasoning in supporting their academic motivation and engagement. Learning and Instruction. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.learninstruc.2022.101712
q3 · i1 · associational · r2
Structural equation model of 500 Australian undergraduates (fully-forward SEM, MLR estimator, students nested in 41 universities). The authors report lockdown "significantly predicted disengagement (β = 0.12, p = .01; medium effect)" while its path to self-efficacy was non-significant.
"Findings showed that lockdown significantly predicted disengagement (β = 0.12, p = .01; medium effect), but it did not predict self-efficacy (the hypothesized mediator)."
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Motivation — outcome: instruction changes it
- Self-Efficacy — outcome: instruction changes it
Related Claims¶
- Fluid reasoning moderated the lockdown–self-efficacy relationship: a booster effect for students in lockdown — related
- Self-efficacy significantly predicted engagement and inversely predicted disengagement, and mediated adaptability's links to outcomes — related
- Perceived adaptability significantly and positively predicted self-efficacy and all three engagement dimensions — related
