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? The group effect on error rates was not significant and did not interact with task; PoorAF children's multiplication error rates were low and comparable to controls. → Mussolin 2008
Evidence¶
Mussolin 2008¶
Mussolin, C. and Noël, M-P. (2008). Specific Retrieval Deficit from Long-Term Memory in Children with Poor Arithmetic Facts Abilities. The Open Psychology Journal. https://doi.org/10.2174/1874350100801010026
q3 · i? · associational · r2
A mixed ANCOVA on error rates with group as between-subjects factor, task as within-subjects factor, and LUM scores as covariate. The main effect of task was significant (F(5, 165) = 12.142, p < .001), but the group effect was not significant and did not interact with task.
"The group effect was not significant ( F<1) and did not interact with the task ( p > .05)"

- Children with poor arithmetic fact abilities are significantly slower than matched controls only on the multiplication selection task — related
- PoorAF children do not differ from controls on tasks retrieving semantic information (words, objects, countries) or verbal routines (proverbs) — related
