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.
q2 i? Descriptive mean frequencies per 1-min sequence increase for most nonverbal behaviors as QCGE ratings rise from low to high, e.g. laughing with SE from 1.91 to 5.06 occurrences and head nodding with CC from 1.42 to 3.16. → Paneth 2024

Descriptive results from Figure 4 aggregating mean nonverbal frequencies per rating level across time and groups; also reported: "the mean frequency of head nodding increases with higher ratings of CC: it is 1.42 times when rated low and 3.16 times when rated high". These are descriptive means only, no inferential test.
"frequencies of nonverbal behaviors increase with higher ratings. For example, the frequency of laughing increases strongly with higher ratings of SE: on average, laughing occurs 1.91 times when rated low and 5.06 times when rated high."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- No statistically significant association between QCGE dimension ratings and the collaborative product grade — related
- QCGE dimensions correlate weakly with each other except a moderate CE–CC correlation; nonverbal behaviors were not affected by task condition — related
- A confirmatory factor analysis supports a four-factor structure of collaborative group engagement (behavioural, social, cognitive, conceptual-to-consequential) for the QCGE self-assessment scale
- Criterion validity testing related QCGE-SAS subscale correlations and a regression on objectively graded group products for a laboratory subsample
