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 i? The structural model accounted for 76% of variance in text generation quality in Grades 4-6 and 82% in Grades 7-9. → Limpo 2013

q3 · i? · associational · r2
In the multiple-group SEM, the four latent predictors "accounted for 76% and 82% of the variance in text generation quality" in the younger and older samples respectively; no effect size per predictor is printed for this omnibus figure.
"Transcription, planning, revision, and self-efficacy accounted for 76% and 82% of the variance in text generation quality, respectively, in Grades 4-6 and 7-9."
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Writing Skills — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes
Related Claims¶
- Planning and self-efficacy contributed more to text generation in Grades 7-9, transcription more in Grades 4-6 — related
- In Grades 7-9, transcription contributes to writing quality indirectly through planning and self-efficacy — related
- Transcription predicts planning, revision, and self-efficacy in both grade groups — related
- Planning and revision skills were unrelated, and neither predicted self-efficacy, in the studied samples — related
- Inference, but not theory of mind, is independently related to writing quality after accounting for transcription skills and working memory — related
