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 this sample there was no profile combining considerably above-average math achievement or numerosity with high math anxiety. → Hart 2015

Evidence¶

Hart 2015¶

Hart, Sara A.; Logan, Jessica A.R.; Thompson, Lee; Kovas, Yulia; McLoughlin, Gráinne; & Petrill, Stephen A. (2015). A latent profile analysis of math achievement, numerosity, and math anxiety in twins. Journal of Educational Psychology. https://doi.org/10.1037/edu0000045

q3 · i? · associational · r2

Comparing the largest class (high performers, lowest math anxiety) with the other four classes, the authors observed that above-average performers on one measure generally did well on the others, and no high-performing, high-anxiety profile emerged.

"This indicates that in this sample there was no group of children who performed considerably above average on the math achievement and/or numerosity measures and also had high math anxiety."

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
