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? The new scale correlated at medium size with established cognitive load measures, supporting both convergent validity and incremental validity over difficulty appraisals. → Tino Endres 2025

q3 · i? · causal · r2
Quantitative validity analysis accompanying the preregistered experiment. The article reports "evidence for convergent and incremental validity shown by medium-size correlations with established cognitive load measures". Correlation coefficients are not printed in the available text, so no effect size is coded.
"We found evidence for convergent and incremental validity shown by medium-size correlations with established cognitive load measures."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Perceived task difficulty ratings show a strong relation to Rasch-estimated relative task difficulty, supporting construct validity of the single-item scale — related
- Invested mental effort and perceived task difficulty are strongly correlated yet relate differently to relative task difficulty, indicating the two ratings measure different aspects of overall cognitive load — related
