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? H5 was not supported: no statistically significant reciprocal connections between Task interest and formative assessments were observed. → Fryer 2021
Evidence¶
Fryer 2021¶
Fryer, L. K., Shum, A., Lee, A., & Lau, P. (2021). Mapping students' interest in a new domain: Connecting prior knowledge, interest and self-efficacy with interesting tasks and a lasting desire to reengage. Learning and Instruction. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.learninstruc.2021.101493
q3 · i? · associational · r2
Null finding from the longitudinal-SEM fully-forward model of the 310-student course study. The article reports "no statistically significant reciprocal relationships between Task interest and formative tests"; no effect size is printed for this null result.
"Inconsistent with H5, no statistically significant reciprocal relationships between Task interest and formative tests were apparent (H5)."
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Interest — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes
- Motivation — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes
Related Claims¶
- Interest rarely relates to sourcing while task values show consistent positive relationships — related
- Interest and self-efficacy are distinct yet reciprocally related in supporting learning — related
