Pearson correlation analysis of GRSLSS styles against post-test achievement, run separately for the online (N=27) and in-class (N=55) groups; the article reports the significant online competitive-style correlation without printing an effect size in the text.

"Signific ant correlation emerged only between competitive learning style and academic achievement in an online group. The results of the correlational analysis are displayed in Table 2."
