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? In the auditory modality, differences in metacognitive sensitivity between the language groups were not significant. → Polyanskaya 2024
Evidence¶
Polyanskaya 2024¶
Polyanskaya, L., El-Dakhs, D. A. S., Tao, M., Chu, F., & Ordin, M. (2024). The effect of writing script on efficiency and metacognitive monitoring in inferential word learning. Metacognition and Learning. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11409-024-09380-3
q3 · i? · associational · r2
Separate ANOVA on meta-d' in the auditory modality of the same experiment found no significant group differences, "F(2,223) = 2.144, p = 0.12"; equivalence was not tested.
"the differences between linguistic groups were not significant in the auditory modality, F(2,223) = 2.144, p = 0.12, with no significant differences between groups pairwise."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Inferential word learning accuracy differs between Arabic, Chinese and Portuguese speakers only in the visual modality, with Arabic speakers lower than both Chinese and Portuguese speakers
- Linguistic group and perceptual modality show a significant disordinal interaction in metacognition: Arabic speakers monitor better in the auditory modality, Chinese speakers in the visual modality — related
