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? Self-assessment accuracy remained -1 step for both early and final selections, with no significant difference between them, z = -0.91, p = .36. → Nugteren 2018
q2 i? Estimated performance change showed no significant difference between early and final selections, z = -1.19, p = .23. → Nugteren 2018 (2)
Evidence¶
Nugteren 2018¶
Nugteren, M. L., Jarodzka, H., Kester, L., & Van Merriënboer, J. J. G. (2018). Self-regulation of secondary school students: self-assessments are inaccurate and insufficiently used for learning-task selection. Instructional Science. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11251-018-9448-2
q2 · i? · associational · r1
Wilcoxon signed-rank comparison of the first four versus final four task selections in the N = 15 experiment. Median accuracy was -1 step at both points; equivalence was not tested, only the non-significant difference is reported.
"There was no significant difference between the overall self-assessment accuracy scores for early and final selections, z =- 0.91, p = .36."
Nugteren 2018 (2)¶
Nugteren, M. L., Jarodzka, H., Kester, L., & Van Merriënboer, J. J. G. (2018). Self-regulation of secondary school students: self-assessments are inaccurate and insufficiently used for learning-task selection. Instructional Science. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11251-018-9448-2
q2 · i? · associational · r1
Same split-half comparison for estimated performance change (JOL minus performance estimate), which was 0 steps for both early and final selections. No effect size is printed.
"There was no significant difference between early and final task selections for estimated performance change, z =- 1.19, p = .23."
