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.
q3 i? The code specific was applied to the highest percentage of comments in both groups (36.1% trained, 23.3% untrained) while actionable matched the lowest percentage. → George Gyamfi 2024

George Gyamfi 2024¶
George Gyamfi, Barbara E. Hanna, Hassan Khosravi. (2024). Impact of an instructional guide and examples on the quality of feedback: insights from a randomised controlled study. Education Tech Research Dev. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11423-024-10346-0
q3 · i? · causal · r2
Per-trait analysis of the sampled coded comments from both groups. The article reports "the chi-square goodness of fit test revealed a statistically significant difference between the groups in the extent to which each S.P.A.R.K. trait was displayed, p < 0.05."
"the code “specific” was applied to the highest percentage of comments for both the trained (36.1%) and untrained group (23.3%) while the code “actionable” matched the lowest percentage of comments."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Even with the guide, few comments displayed all five S.P.A.R.K. traits, showing limited comprehensive feedback ability — related
- An instructional guide and examples led peer reviewers to write longer feedback comments, with a small effect size — related
- The guide increased the percentage of feedback comments displaying at least one S.P.A.R.K. quality trait — related
- The guide increased co-occurrence of multiple S.P.A.R.K. traits within a single feedback comment — related
