Second meta-analysis coded on mean comprehension test performance per participant (Research Question 3). The provided text is truncated before the detailed comprehension results section, so only the abstract-level statement with no printed effect size is available.

"A further meta-analysis on comprehension in the selected studies revealed that, overall, the situation-model-approach interventions were also beneficial for directly improving comprehension, albeit the effect was small"

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Five of seven situation-model interventions significantly improved relative metacomprehension accuracy, concept mapping only marginally (p = .097), and self-explaining not significantly — related
• Comprehension-test expectancy tended to be more effective than delayed-keywords listing and rereading, though interventions did not substantially differ overall — related
• Intervention types (cue-generation encoding-based, retrieval-based, cue-attention, cue-selection) do not substantially differ in effectiveness — related
• Situation-model-approach interventions produce a medium positive average effect (g = 0.46) on relative metacomprehension accuracy — related
• Generative and visualizing tasks improve metacomprehension and monitoring accuracy but show small or null effects on learning outcomes — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
• Situation-model-approach interventions show a medium-sized positive effect on metacomprehension accuracy and a small direct effect on comprehension — related
