q2 · i? · causal · r1

Mann Whitney U test of TAI posttest scores, n=14 per group. Experimental TAI fell from 51.64 to 38.79 while the control stayed near 47; the article reports "significantly different" with U=49.00, p<.05, no effect size printed.

"the TAI and AMM scores of the experimental group were significantly different (TAI, U=49.00 p<.05; AMM, U=44.00, p< .05). As expected, the mean TAI and AMM scores decreased"
