Evidence¶

Tanja Fritz 2023¶

Tanja Fritz, Hernán González Cruz, Stefan Janke, Martin Daumiller. (2023). Elucidating the Associations Between Achievement Goals and Academic Dishonesty: a Meta-analysis. Educational Psychology Review. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10648-023-09753-1

q3 · i? · quant-synthesis · r2

Pooled estimate from the three-level meta-analysis: "r = –0.006, 95% CI [–0.064, 0.051]"; the null result does not establish equivalence. Only three studies contributed.

"Mastery-avoidance goals were not statistically significantly different from zero, based on 10 effect sizes (6 positive and 4 negative) from 3 studies ( r = –0.006, 95% CI [–0.064, 0.051])"
