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.

q3 i? Within-group Wilcoxon comparisons showed significant pre-to-post improvement for the control group (z=-4.666; p<0.05) and the experimental group (z=-4.862; p<0.05), with gains of nearly 9 and nearly 16 points respectively. → Ahmet Başal 2016

q3 · i? · causal · r2

Wilcoxon within-group comparisons in the same quasi-experiment: both groups "significantly improved their scores at the post-test"; the experimental gain was nearly 16 points versus nearly 9 for the control. No effect size is printed.

"The pre- and post-test results for the control group were z=-4,666; p<0, 05 and for the experimental z=-4,862; p<0, 05. According to this result, the difference between the pre-test and post-test scores of the control group was nearly 9 points, and the difference between the pre-test and post-test scores of the experimental group was nearly 16 points"
