Peer-feedback can be supported by formal or subject-matter-related scaffolds. However, it is unclear whether these scaffolds differ in their effects on process-related and outcome-related variables. In our meta-analysis including N=22 studies with N=2.473 learners, results show a statistically significant effect only for subject-matter-related scaffolds on process-related variables. The lack of further effects might represent a power problem, i.e., more research is necessary to judge the effectiveness of the different scaffolds on process and outcome-related variables.
