q3 i? The effect of revision on text generation was only marginally significant in both samples (ps > .08) and revision skills were not related to writing quality. → Limpo 2013

Evidence¶

Limpo 2013¶

Limpo, T., & Alves, R. A. (2013). Modeling writing development: Contribution of transcription and self-regulation to Portuguese students' text generation quality. Journal of Educational Psychology, 105, 401-413. https://doi.org/10.1037/a0031391

q3 · i? · associational · r2

In the SEM of both grade groups, the revision-to-text-generation path was retained only because it was "marginally significant in both samples (ps > .08)"; the authors report revision skills were not related to writing quality. No effect size is printed.

"Although students' transcription fluency predicted students' skills to revise meaning errors, these skills were not related to writing quality."

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

• Writing Skills — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes

• Planning and self-efficacy contributed more to text generation in Grades 7-9, transcription more in Grades 4-6 — related
