Subclaims¶

q2 i? Pre-test scores did not differ significantly between the groups, suggesting equivalent prior knowledge. → Dağdelen and Kosterelioglu 2015

Evidence¶

Dağdelen and Kosterelioglu 2015¶

Orhan Dağdelen, İlker Kösterelioğlu. (2015). Effect of Conceptual Change Texts for Overcoming Misconceptions in “People and Management” Unit. International Electronic Journal of Elementary Education, 8(1), 99-112. https://eric.ed.gov/?id=EJ1078838

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Independent samples t-test on PMAT pre-test scores of the two intact 4th grade classes (n= 23 each), means Mexp= 10.00 and Mcontrol= 10.22. No effect size is printed for this comparison; the article says it "may point to the fact that both groups had equivalent levels of prior information".

"Pre-test scores do not show meaningful differences between experimental and control group students ( t(44)= -0.272; p> 0.05)."
