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 i0 In Model 2, the time-varying task feature open-ended task had a small positive, credible-interval-significant regression on disciplinary engagement (0.08), while its regressions on CE (0.03) and ME (0.04) were not credibly different from zero. The association is contemporaneous (same interval), not a lagged prediction of later engagement. → Rogat 2026

q2 · i0 · associational · r2
Time-varying task-feature regressions in Model 2 of the time series analysis, with task openness coded binary for each video interval. The printed coefficient for DEt is 0.08, marked as a 95% credible interval not including 0, while CE and ME coefficients were smaller and not starred.

Related Claims¶
- Disciplinary engagement at one interval positively predicts subsequent behavioral and collaborative engagement
- Adding time-varying task features roughly halves unexplained variance in disciplinary engagement ratings — related
