Abstract (English):The innovative PISA domain “Learning in the digital world (LDW)” integrates the assessment of knowledge and skills with opportunities for learning. To investigate whether learning took place during the assessment, we analyzed data from 737 German PISA 2022 students and modeled individual differences in test performance that could not be explained by students'prior knowledge and skills. We then related these differences to learning activity (the use of worked examples during a task) and learning prerequisites (general intelligence and mastery orientation) to validate their interpretation as performance based on knowledge and skills acquired during the task. We found substantial remaining variance in performance after controlling for prior knowledge (21 % of variance). Significant relationships of these differences with both learning prerequisites and learning activity provide further evidence for interpreting found differences as a result of learning during the task.
