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.

q2 i3 Model quality correlated negatively with goal viewing (r=−0.54) and note taking (r=−0.40), and helpfile viewing approached a positive association (p=0.07). → Sarah Manlove 2007 q2 i3 Lab report scores showed significant positive correlations with regulative tool use and negative correlations with helpfile viewing (e.g., structure with helpfiles r=−0.59). → Sarah Manlove 2007 (2)

q2 · i3 · causal · r2

Correlational analysis across both conditions (Table 3): view goals r=−0.54** and take notes r=−0.40* with model quality; helpfile viewing positive with p=0.07.

"Correlational analyses further revealed that higher model quality scores were associated with lower instances of goal viewing and note taking (see Table 3). The correlation between model quality and helpfile viewing approached significance ( p=0.07), suggesting that dyads who consulted the helpfiles more often also built more accurate models."

q2 · i3 · causal · r2

Table 3 correlations: view goals with report structure r=0.62** and view helpfiles with report structure r=−0.59**, both p<0.01 two-tailed.

"A reverse pattern was obtained for both lab report scores, with significant positive correlations for frequencies of regulative tool use, and negative correlations for instances of helpfile viewing."
