Subclaims¶

q2 i? Average time on achievement tests was 6.18 minutes for the experimental group versus 7.51 minutes for the control group, against a 10-minute limit proposed by the instructor. → Chokri Barhoumi; Pier Giuseppe Rossi 2013

q2 · i? · causal · r2

Platform-tracked timing data from the Moodle e-learning system after the experimental period, reported in the validation of Hypothesis 1. The article states the experimental group's "time on achievement tests of the experimental group is 6.18 minutes" versus 7.51 for the control group. Descriptive comparison only; no test statistic is printed.

"The average of th e time on achievement tests of the experimental group is 6.18 minutes and this is better then the average time of achievement test of the control group that is 7.51 minutes."

• Boys responded faster than girls on the test, but the response-time difference did not affect achievement — related
• Experimental-group students held more positive attitudes toward flexible hypertext course design than control-group students toward direct design (t = 4.723) — related
