Subclaims¶

q3 i? The experimental group showed a statistically significant pre-test to post-test difference (p<0.001) on agility, swiftness, tennis ball tossing, ball control by foot, throwing a ball into the ring, and footrace coordination, in favour of the post-tests. → Altinkok 2017

q3 · i? · causal · r2

Paired-samples t tests on the experimental group (n=30 per the table rows) across six motor performance tests after a 10-week coordination-based program. The article reports "a statistically significant difference was found (p<0.001)" in favour of post-tests; no effect sizes are printed.

"according to the pre- and post-test findings of “paired samples t” test of the experimental group, a statistically significant difference was found (p<0.001). The differences in question showed up in favour of the post-tests."
