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? A very high Pearson correlation (r = .994, p = 0.001) was found between students' belief that visual strategies are better than traditional methods and their preference for using them. → Nahari 2016

q3 · i? · causal · r1
Pearson correlation analysis of questionnaire responses found r = .994 (p = 0.001) between belief in the superiority of visual strategies and preference for using them, suggesting perceived usefulness drives method preference.
"the correlation between students' attitude towards visual strategies being better than the traditional method of teaching and students' preference of using visual strategies was found to be very high"
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Learning-Style Preferences — outcome: instruction changes reported style
