Subclaims¶

q2 i? The coherence measure showed a decrease after training with the game for both novices and advanced learners, which was significant for advanced learners and weakly significant for novices. → Wouters 2011

Wouters, P., van der Spek, E. D., & van Oostendorp, H. (2011). Measuring learning in serious games: A case study with structural assessment. Educational Technology Research and Development, 59(6), 741–763. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11423-010-9183-0

q2 · i? · design · r2

Related-samples Wilcoxon tests on coherence scores from 19 participants. The article reports the novices' decrease was "weakly significant" (Z = -1.82, p = .069) while the decrease "was significant for the advanced learners" (Z = -2.19).

"For novices the decrease in coherence after the game was weakly significant ( Z =- 1.82, p was .069), while the decrease was significant for the advanced learners ( Z =- 2.19, p\ .05)."
