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 i2 Misconceptions and instructional method did not interact to influence response-confidence accuracy, but a contrast analysis showed response-confidence accuracy was higher in the think-sheet group than in the other two groups (η² = .06). → Anja Prinz 2021

q3 · i2 · causal · r2
Contrast analysis (weights: think-sheet +2, refutation-text −1, control −1) on response-confidence accuracy (gamma correlations) in the randomized experiment, with 14 participants excluded for performance-score invariance: "F(1, 75) = 4.43, p = .039, η2 = .06 (medium effect)".
"The contrast turned out to be sig- nificant, F(1, 75) = 4.43, p = .039, η2 = .06 (medium effect)."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Learners with more misconceptions made more overconfident comprehension predictions after a standard text with a misconception list, an association not seen with refutation texts or think sheets — related
- Misconceptions impair comprehension of a standard text, and both a refutation text and a think sheet compensate for this detrimental effect — related
- Misconceptions did not impair transfer in the strong control condition, but learners with more misconceptions in the think-sheet group transferred better — related
- Refutation texts produce greater conceptual change about multimedia-learning misconceptions than standard texts in student teachers — related
