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? Mediation analyses indicated progress in producing high-quality texts was explained by improvements in students' planning skills, which enabled better-structured stories containing more ideas. → Jonathan Fernandez 2024

q2 · i? · causal · r?
Mediation analysis with planning measures (planning-sheet words, idea units, and story parts) as mediators, run on the matched SRSD versus regular-instruction comparison. The article reports that "Mediation analyses indicated that progress in producing high-quality texts was explained by improvements in students' planning skills". No effect size is printed in the supplied text.
"Mediation analyses indicated that progress in producing high-quality texts was explained by improvements in students' planning skills, enabling them to write stories that were better-structured and contained more ideas."
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Writing Skills — outcome: instruction changes it

- Strategy Instruction Improves Writing Quality — a broader claim this one bears on
- Some SRSD students, particularly those with poor working memory, struggled to implement the planning strategies they were taught — related
- SRSD instruction improved students' accuracy in self-evaluating their texts' quality, although overestimation persisted — related
- In a cross-sectional path model of fourth graders, handwriting fluency statistically mediated the relation between inhibition/updating and all narrative outcomes (text length, syntactic complexity, story content) — related
