q2 · i? · causal · r1

Dependent t-test on the 38-student control group, which studied the same English unit (a passage about Prophet Mohammed and a cloze test on the register of Islam) without the game. The article reports "a calculated t of 0.69 and a p- value of 0.4885"; equivalence was not tested.

"With a calculated t of 0.69 and a p- value of 0.4885, it was evident that there was no s ignificant difference between the pre test and the post test e thnic prejudice scores of the control group."
