Subclaims¶

q2 i? The vigorous physical activity predictor significantly accounted for 4.5% of variance of creativity (F (1, 136) = 6.435, p = 0.000), while other intensity levels were excluded from the model. → Romance 2023

Multiple regression analysis (Table 3) with the different intensity thresholds of physical activity predicting creativity; all levels except vigorous were excluded from the model. R² is variance explained, not a standardised effect size, so impact is null.

"In Table 3 we can observe that the vigorous physical activity predictor (B = 0.904, B SE = 8.886, β = 0.213, t = 2.537, CI [0.199, 1.608]) significantly accounted for 4.5% (95% CI for R2; adjusted R2 = 0.038) of variance of creativity, F (1, 136) = 6.435, p = 0.000."

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

• Creativity — outcome: instruction changes it
• Physical Well-Being — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes
