q2 · i? · causal · r2

Interaction coding from the same 23-dyad counterbalanced user study. Child-initiated questions "showed the same pattern" across conditions, with higher means in both ParaTutor modes than either baseline. No effect size or significance test reported.

"Child-initiated questionsshowed the same pattern, increasing from Mode A (M= 1.74,SD= 0.92) and Mode B (M= 2.09,SD= 0.95) to Mode C (M= 3.61,SD= 1.03) and Mode D (M= 4.09,SD= 1.08)."
