q3 i? EI task nature [Q(1) = 0.71, p = .40], country [Q(1) = 3.08, p = .08], and academic performance criterion [Q(1) = 0.38, p = .54] did not significantly explain variability in the mean effect; age was also non-significant (b = 0.011, p = .17). → Alabbasi Ahmed M. Abdulla 2023

q3 · i? · quant-synthesis · r3

Moderator analyses in the three-level meta-analysis testing task nature, country, academic performance criterion, and age (treated as continuous, b = 0.011, SE = 0.007, p = 0.17). None significantly explained variability in the mean effect size.

"whereas EI task nature [Q(1) = 0.71, p = 0.40], country [Q(1) = 3.08, p = 0.08], and academic performance criterion [Q(1) = 0.38, p = 0.54] did not significantly explain variability in the mean effect"
