q2 i3 Sport-specific attitude scores improved significantly in the experimental group (Mpre = 15.80, Mpost = 18.73) with a significant interaction (partial η² = .145), while control group scores remained stable. → Papaioannou 2014

q2 · i3 · causal · r2

A repeated measures ANOVA on the sport-specific subscale found significant main effects and interaction, with experimental group means rising from 15.80 to 18.73 while control means stayed near 15.5, indicating the DCP improved acceptance of rule adaptations.

"the two main effects were statistical significant, pre-post measure F (1, 385) = 84.26, p < .001, partial η² = .180 and group F (1, 385) = 56.73, p < .001, partial η² = .128, as well as their interaction, F (1, 385) = 65.53, p < .001, partial η² = .145."
