Subclaims¶

q2 i? After treatment, the analogical instruction showed no significant effect on the experimental group's attitudes towards physics (pre-post t = -1.93, p = 0.06). → Ugur et al. 2012

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Attitude to Physics Scale (15 Likert-type items, reliability 0.83) given as pre-test to both groups and post-test to the experimental group only; pre-post means were 52.22 versus 55.18, t = -1.93, p = 0.06, a marginal non-significant result, with the instruction showing "no effects on the experimental group’s attitudes".

"After treatments, the analogical instruction has no effects on the experimental group’s attitudes towards phys- ics."
