Subclaims¶

q3 i1 The only cue-utilization difference between diagramming conditions was a significant decrease in utilization of commission errors for relations (d = −0.302), a low-diagnosticity cue. → Pijeira-Díaz 2023

Evidence¶

Pijeira-Díaz 2023¶

Pijeira-Díaz, H. J., van de Pol, J., Channa, F., & de Bruin, A. (2023). Scaffolding self-regulated learning from causal-relations texts: Diagramming and self-assessment to improve metacomprehension accuracy? Metacognition and Learning, 18, 631–658. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11409-023-09343-0

q3 · i1 · causal · r2

T-tests compared cue utilization between the two diagramming conditions; "commission errors for relations" was "the only cue showing significant differences between diagramming conditions", with the self-assessment group utilizing it negligibly (γ = −0.02 vs γ = 0.18).

"commission errors for relations (which was the least diagnostic cue) was the only cue showing significant differences between diagramming conditions, t(265) = −2.466, p = .014, Cohen’s d = −0.302."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Adding diagram self-assessment to diagram completion does not increase diagnostic cue utilization or metacomprehension accuracy beyond diagramming alone — related
• Pre-structured diagrams improved metacomprehension accuracy while self-assessment cues showed no differences — related
• The cue-diagnosticity intervention steered cue utilization: diagnostic cue use increased and non-diagnostic cue use decreased — related
