Subclaims¶

q1 i? The study reports first evidence of an interaction between learners' social comparison orientation and (alleged) model competence on the effectiveness of EMME, with further research needed. → Krebs 2021

Evidence¶

Krebs 2021¶

Krebs, M.-C., Schüler, A., & Scheiter, K. (2021). Do prior knowledge, model-observer similarity and social comparison influence the effectiveness of eye movement modeling examples for supporting multimedia learning? Instructional Science, 49, 607–635. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11251-021-09552-7

q1 · i? · causal · r?

The article's summary statement of its exploratory social comparison orientation analyses (two multiple regressions with recall and comprehension as dependent variables). No statistic, direction or effect size for this interaction is printed in the available text, so the finding is reported only as the authors state it: "first evidence". The available Results section is truncated before the full regression report.

"Moreover, results showed first evidence that social comparison orientation interacts with (alleged) model competence regarding the effectiveness of EMME. Further research is needed to follow up on the influence of individual factors as well as social cues on the effectiveness of EMME."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• For recall performance, the study found no significant three-way interaction between modeling condition, prior knowledge activation and domain knowledge, so the model-observer similarity hypotheses were not supported. — related
