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.
q2 i? Independent samples t-tests found no significant difference between experimental and control groups on pre-test (t(82)=0.894, p>0.05) or post-test (t(82)=0.149, p>0.05) achievement scores. → Eda Pınar Tüccaroğlu 2018

q2 · i? · causal · r1
Independent samples t-test on post-test scores of 55 experimental and 29 control students from a 20-question achievement test; means were 45.07 vs 44.55 and "t(82)=0.149, p>0.05", so no significant between-group difference was found.
"it was found that the mean of the scores obtained by the students in the experimental group was (X) 45.07, that of the scores obtained by the control group was (X) 44.55 t(82)=0.149, p>0.05."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- The authors conclude ABSI is one of the practices aiming to increase students' success and motivate participation in in-class dialogues — reports the opposite
- Experimental (ABSI) group's achievement scores increased significantly from pre-test to post-test, while the control group's did not — related
- The experimental and control groups did not differ significantly in writing scores at pre-test, supporting attribution of post-test differences to the instructional methods — related
- No statistically significant post-test difference was found between the Jigsaw IV and Jigsaw II groups — related

- Within the experimental group, achievement rose significantly from pre-test to post-test, while the control group's gain was not statistically significant — related
- The jigsaw and control groups did not differ on material recognition or usage pre-tests — related
- Experimental-group achievement rose significantly from pre- to post-test while the control group's gain was not significant — related
