q4 · i? · quant-synthesis · r3

Meta-regression and subgroup analyses within the three-level meta-analytic dataset tested gender, SES, teaching experience, measurement modality, and grade level as moderators; the article reports moderating effects for SES, experience, measurement method, and grade level, with no moderator coefficients printed in the available text.

"We found moderating effects for students' socioeconomic status (SES), teachers' years of experience, method by which SEC were measured, and grade levels."

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

• Age and Developmental Stage — moderator: an instructional effect differs with it
• Socioeconomic Status — moderator: an instructional effect differs by group

Related Claims¶

• SES moderates relationships between other variables and student learning — a broader claim this one bears on
• Socioeconomic status does not significantly moderate the mind-set–achievement correlation — related
• Educational domain, cultural orientation, age, gender, and socioeconomic status are candidate moderators of model effects — related
