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? In the logistic regression model, negative feedback provision by itself was not a significant predictor; only modified output with advanced forms was. → Kim McDonough 2005

Kim McDonough 2005¶
Kim McDonough. (2005). IDENTIFYING THE IMPACT OF NEGATIVE FEEDBACK AND LEARNERS' RESPONSES ON ESL QUESTION DEVELOPMENT. Studies in Second Language Acquisition, Volume 27, Issue 1. https://doi.org/10.1017/S0272263105050047
q3 · i? · causal · r1
Same logistic regression analysis of the 60-learner, four-condition, 8-week study. Because the article states modified output was "the only significant predictor," negative feedback provision alone did not reach significance. No effect size or test statistic is printed; equivalence was not tested.
"Logistic regression indicated that the only significant predictor of ESL question development was the production of modified output involving developmentally advanced question forms in response to negative feedback."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Producing modified output involving developmentally advanced question forms in response to negative feedback is the only significant predictor of ESL question development — related
- Low-proficiency L2 learners benefited significantly more from prompts than from recasts — related
- High-proficiency L2 learners benefited equally from prompts and recasts — related
- Prompts were overall more effective than recasts as corrective feedback for L2 grammar learning — related
- Form-focused instruction combined with prompts is more effective than FFI combined with recasts or no feedback, especially on written tasks — related
