Currency · newest study 2001 · not yet checked against its sources · not reviewed by a person
Evidence quality · No study behind this claim is a peer-reviewed article with a DOI: it rests on an ERIC document (a report, conference paper or thesis). It is kept because 2 design pages cite it; treat it as a lead to check, not an established finding.
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? Across all 1,570 students, predicting (721), using contextual analysis (618), rereading (532), and modeling and discussing one's own reading process (316) were the most frequently manifested behaviors. → Gil 2001
q2 i? The least frequently reported behaviors were deciding when to stop the activity if a difficulty arises (2), time for independent reading (3), and testing (30). → Gil 2001 (2)
Evidence¶
Gil 2001¶
Gil, A., Osiecki, N., & Juarez, A. (2001). Students Reflecting on What They Know. Paper presented at the XIX International Council for Innovation in Higher Education, Rome. https://eric.ed.gov/?id=ED457222
q2 · i? · associational · r1
Results section, Table 10: overall frequencies of coded metacognitive behaviors for the 1,570 2nd-12th grade students (no 4th grade data). The study reports "predicting (721), using contextual analysis (618), rereading (532)" as most frequent. No effect size printed.
"The metacognitive behaviors most frequently manifested were: predicting (721), using contextual analysis (618), rereading (532), and modeling and discussing his/her own reading process (316)."

q2 · i? · associational · r1
Results section, Table 10 discussion: least frequent behaviors across the sample were "deciding when to stop the activity if a difficulty arises (2), time for independent reading (3), and summarizing (30)." Table 10 itself gives testing 30 and summarizing 235, so the prose names the wrong behavior; the subclaim follows the table. No effect size printed.
"The opposite, the least frequently metacognitive behaviors reported were: deciding when to stop the activity if a difficulty arises (2), time for independent reading (3), and summarizing (30)."
