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.
q2 i? Within every group, Friedman tests found significant differences among the three subtests, and all groups shared the performance standard MC > VP > VMI. → Capellini 2017

q2 · i? · associational · r1
Friedman tests compared VMI, VP and MC within each group (all significant, e.g. GI p = 0.021, GV p = 0.001); the conclusion states "The viso -motor integration was the ability that all groups had lower score and motor coordination was the ability that all groups had better performance".
"The viso -motor integration was the ability that all groups had lower score and motor coordination was the ability that all groups had better performance"
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- No significant difference was found between grade groups in the classification distribution of VMI, VP and MC performance levels — related
- Acquisition of visual perception, motor coordination and visual-motor integration does not progress linearly across grades 1 to 5 — related
- First-grade students show inferior visual-motor integration, visual perception and motor coordination performance compared with the other grade groups — related
- Students' baseline SRL profiles show help-seeking as the highest and reflection FOR action as the lowest skill in both cohorts — related
- Only in the 5th-grade group were moderate positive correlations found, between visual-motor integration and motor coordination (r = 0.748) and between visual perception and dysgraphia classification (r = 0.643) — related
