q2 · i? · causal · r2

Pilot study with 12 students (M = 14.59 years) completing the three task versions; a linear mixed-effects model showed a significant main effect of link type, χ² (3, N = 12) = 169.49, p < .001, dv = 10.42, where "rating differed according to the type of links".

"rating differed according to the type of links (bad: M = 0.13, SE = 0.06; poor: M = 0.39, SE = 0.06; fair: M = 0.63, SE = 0.06; and good: M = 0.81, SE = 0.05)"
