q2 i? At the control school, variability in student reporting was much more flat across all scales; the only measure of ten to change significantly was social support, where measure 2 differed from measures 1 and 3. → Nelson 2012

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Control-school repeated-measures analysis (Table 2). Social support showed significant change (F = 12.07 and 11.42); all other scales were non-significant (e.g., Optimism F = .643 and 1.90). Control dropout stayed at 1.1%, 1.1%, 1.2% and attendance at 95%, 94%, 94%.

"The only measure (out of 10 total) to exhibit the same level of significant change in student reporting (p < .001) was within the social support construct, where measure 2 significantly differed from measures 1 and 3"
