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? For quiz 1, the Kahoot-performance-by-competitiveness interaction was significant, with a positive Kahoot-quiz relationship for the HC group only; the interactions for quizzes 2 and 3 were not significant. → Daniell DiFrancesca 2025

Daniell DiFrancesca, Dan Spencer. (2025). The effects of competitive classroom activities on undergraduates with varied levels of competitive preference. Instructional Science. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11251-025-09741-8
q3 · i? · associational · r1
A moderation analysis with averaged early Kahoot scores predicting quiz 1 (transformed to percentages) found the interaction significant (B = 0.59, p =.012); the quiz 2 interaction (B = -0.05, p =.86) and quiz 3 interaction (B = -0.12, p =.70) were not significant.
"However, the interaction between Kahoot performance and competitiveness group was significant (B = 0.59, SE = 0.23, β = 1.53, p =.012). Examination of the interaction revealed a significant positive relationship between Kahoot performance and quiz 1 scores for the HC group. No significant association was found for the LC group."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Students across competitive-preference levels reported enjoying the Kahoot activities consistently throughout the semester, with no detectable wear-out effect — related
- Kahoot performance over a semester did not differ between high- and low-competitive undergraduates, though scores varied across time points — related
- Absolute monitoring accuracy showed a mixed, inconsistent group-by-time interaction rather than a stable competitiveness difference — related
- Metacognitive monitoring bias during competitive Kahoots did not differ by competitive preference, though bias shifted across time — related
- Monitoring accuracy score does not moderate the effort–monitoring correlation — related
