q2 i? A systematic review of 134 studies supports the argument that any theoretical model of strategic processing among college students must embrace its multidimensional and dynamic nature. → Patricia A. Alexander 2017

The commentary reports that Dinsmore's (2017) systematic review examined 134 studies of strategic processing, considering levels-of-processing, trait, and state models, and that this examination "reinforces his core argument" for multidimensional, dynamic models. As reported second-hand in the commentary.

"His detailed examination of 134 studies reinforces his core argument that any theoretical model of strategic processing among college students must embrace its multidimensional and dynamic nature."

Related Claims¶

• Neither self-report nor eye tracking can reliably distinguish strategic from habituated behavior in empirical practice
• Fryer argues perceived control and need for competence may bridge differences among models of higher-education learning toward a mega-theory
• Zusho concludes SRL, SAL, and engagement perspectives all entail learner adaptation, and that models of student learning mismatch how they are measured
• Review findings on college strategic processing: development under-studied, quality of strategy use matters more than frequency, and learner and environmental conditions determine effectiveness
• The special issue's contributions divide between narrative-review and systematic-review methodologies — related
• S-SRL strategy use is dynamic over time, contexts and student characteristics, supporting an event-based conceptualization of self and socially regulated learning — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
• Engagement inferred from log data must be treated with caution because digital traces reflect unevenly distributed social and material conditions — related
• The reviewer argues that the dynamic character of appetites and desires must be considered in any thoroughgoing character-development plan — related
