First, correlation analysis and ordinary least squares (OLS) regression were used to estimate the relationship between teacher-student relationships and left-behind children's cognitive ability. Second, the Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition technique was used to estimate the contribution of teacher-student relationships to the cognitive ability gap between left-behind and non-left-behind children.

When left-behind children's teacher-student relationship improves to the average level of non-left-behind children, their cognitive ability gap will narrow by 3.14%. Furthermore, the teacher-student relationship can improve teachers' support for left-behind children and their learning attitudes, thereby promoting their cognitive development.</p></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><p>This study examined that the teacher-student relationship could promote the cognitive ability of left-behind children through teacher support and students' learning attitudes.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48357,"journal":{"name":"Learning and Instruction","volume":"93 ","pages":"Article 101975"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141593816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A meta-analysis","authors":"Sina Scherer ,&nbsp;Steve Graham ,&nbsp;Vera Busse","doi":"10.1016/j.learninstruc.2024.101961","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.learninstruc.2024.101961","url":null,"abstract":"<div><h3>Background</h3><p>Feedback is important for writing improvement, but research suggests that not all learners benefit equally from feedback.</p></div><div><h3>Aims</h3><p>This meta-analysis examined if different feedback treatments given by different feedback agents are differentially effective for first (L1), second (L2), and foreign language (FL) learners at secondary schools and universities.</p></div><div><h3>Method</h3><p>Our meta-analysis included studies with an experimental or quasi-experimental design.

However, such feedback may have detrimental effects on FL deep-level outcomes (g = −0.23). In contrast, deep-level feedback demonstrated positive effects on deep-level outcomes (g = 0.80), with larger effects for L1 (g = 1.26) than for FL learners (g = 0.37; non-significant). Combined surface-and deep-level feedback positively affected both deep-level (g = 0.54) and surface-level outcomes (g = 0.36) for all learners.</p><p>Instructor feedback demonstrated overall moderate benefits for both outcomes showing greater impact on FL learners (g = 0.72) than on L2 learners (g = 0.35) for surface-level outcomes. Peer feedback showed medium to large effects for deep-level outcomes (FL learners: g = 0.76; L1 learners: g = 1.46). In contrast, algorithm-based feedback showed a non-significant medium effect on FL learners' surface-level outcomes (g = 0.53), and self-feedback showed a non-significant medium effect on FL learners’ deep-level outcomes (g = 0.55). Lastly, feedback proved effective for both university and secondary school students, thereby underscoring its crucial role in fostering writing.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48357,"journal":{"name":"Learning and Instruction","volume":"93 ","pages":"Article 101961"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2024-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0959475224000884/pdfft?md5=949d784db9bbaa483d8562de446ac67a&pid=1-s2.0-S0959475224000884-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141486552","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
