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? A significant linear regression predicts math achievement from math anxiety, with R2 of .357. → Yılmaz Mutlu 2019

Linear regression analysis predicting mathematics achievement from math anxiety in the same 288-student sample. "A significant regression equation was found" with F(1,286)= 158.691, p< .000, R2=.357; achievement decreased -6.611 per unit of anxiety.
"A significant regression equation was found ( F(1,286)= 158.691, p< .000) with an R2 of .357."
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Academic Anxiety — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes
- Affect Regulation — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes
Related Claims¶
- Self-image and learning mathematics anxiety, but not other metacognition dimensions or evaluation anxiety, predict mathematics achievement after controlling for IQ — related
- Math anxiety relates more strongly to Mathematical Reasoning than to Numerical Operations in second and third graders — related
- Math anxiety is significantly negatively correlated with math achievement in second and third graders, independent of trait anxiety and IQ — related
