Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i1 Control-variable UNIANOVAs found no significant group differences (e.g., prior knowledge F(2, 82) = 0.54, p = 0.585, η2 = 0.013). → Babette Park · Andreas Korbach · Paul Ginns · Roland Brünken 2023

Secondary null analyses in the Results section: "The three groups did not differ significantly in prior knowledge", working memory capacity, spatial ability, the three motivation subscales, baseline fixation duration, or eye-tracking quality and validity, supporting random assignment of the N = 83 analyzed sample.
"The three groups did not differ significantly in prior knowledge, F(2, 82) = 0.54, p = 0.585, η2 = 0.013; working memory capacity, F(2, 82) = 2.48, p = 0.090, η2 = 0.058; and spatial ability, F(2, 82) = 0.01, p = 0.991, η2 = 0.000"
