Subclaims¶

q3 i? Egger's regression intercept did not significantly deviate from zero (B0 = 0.6996, p = 0.7576), and Rosenthal's Fail-safe N (7331) far exceeded the threshold of 115. → Ergen 2017

Ergen 2017¶

Ergen, B., & Kanadli, S. (2017). The effect of self-regulated learning strategies on academic achievement: A meta-analysis study. Eurasian Journal of Educational Research, 69, 55-74. https://doi.org/10.14689/ejer.2017.69.4

q3 · i? · quant-synthesis · r2

Publication-bias assessment of the 21-study meta-analysis using a thesis-vs-article moderator analysis (Qb = 0.271, p > 0.05), a funnel plot, Egger's regression intercept test, and Rosenthal's Fail-safe N test in CMA 2.0.

"As a result of Egger's regression intercept test, the intercept value (B0) was computed as 0.6996 and the two-tailed p-value as 0.7576."

Related Claims¶

• Self-regulated learning improves achievement — the general claim this finding bears on, with the studies behind it
• Funnel plot and Egger's test indicate publication bias in the PBL tutor-background data, and trim-and-fill suggests the overall effect is overestimated — related
• Publication bias is unlikely to explain the consistency of SRL intervention effect sizes — possibly the same claim (merge candidate)
• Fail-safe N analyses indicate publication bias does not threaten the validity of the meta-analysis findings — related

• The pooled effect of writing instruction for US ELL students is robust to sensitivity analyses but funnel plot asymmetry suggests possible missing positive effect sizes — related
• Funnel-plot asymmetry ran contrary to small-study effects because larger-sample studies reported larger effect sizes, likely reflecting longer training programs — related

• No evidence of reporting bias was found for the foreign language word reading SMD meta-analysis — related
• The active-learning advantage is robust to publication bias and to variation in methodological rigor of the included studies — a narrower finding that bears on this claim

• The text generation research field shows a small-study effect suggesting publication bias — reports the opposite
• No clear evidence of publication bias or small study effects in the collaborative instruction literature — related

• Publication-bias tests (Egger's test and trim-and-fill) indicate absence of publication bias for the overall effect and moderators — possibly the same claim (merge candidate)
• The pooled gamification effect is robust across dependence assumptions, quality thresholds, and model specifications, with no evidence of publication bias — related
• Publication bias was significant for the overall DT analysis but not for the fluency, flexibility, or originality indicator analyses — related
