Comparison of CAT pre-test and post-test mean scores for the pre-tested pair (overall N=86): E1 gained .3233 versus C1's .1279. The article states "a higher mean gain ob tained by Experimental Group 1" and infers CBS had a positive effect, while noting both groups gained under their respective approaches.

"Table 11 shows that there was a higher mean gain ob tained by Experimental Group 1 than by Control Group 1."
