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? In a one-group time series (two pretests, then three posttests over 10 weeks of CAI based on TLS), 32 ninth grade Thai EFL students' creative writing scores rose significantly (p = .000); with no comparison group, the rise cannot be attributed to CAI-TLS itself. → Jinajai and Rattanavich 2015

q2 · i? · causal · r1
Repeated measures ANOVA on writing scores of 32 ninth grade students in a one-group time series design (two pretests, then three posttests; no control or comparison group) found scores rose significantly after CAI-TLS instruction, with the group showing "higher development in creative writing". The two pretests did not differ significantly (p = 1.000), which does not show that scores were flat before instruction, and without a comparison group the study cannot show that CAI-TLS, rather than other teaching or testing over the 10 weeks, caused the rise.
"the comparison of the development in writing indicated that the experimental group registered higher development in creative writing at a .01 level ( = .218, F-statistic = 25.13, p- value = .000)"
