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 i? On the DCT, the CI group demonstrated further gains from post-test to delayed post-test, whereas the SI group demonstrated losses over the same period. → Takimoto 2014
Evidence¶
Takimoto 2014¶
Takimoto, M. (2014). Evaluating the Effects of Input-based Approaches to the Teaching of Pragmalinguistics and Sociopragmatics in Second Language Pragmatics: A Case of English Request Hedges. The IAFOR Journal of Language Learning, I(I). https://iafor.org/journal-of-language-learning
q3 · i? · causal · r1
Descriptive trend reported from one-way ANOVA results displayed in Figure 1 and Table 3, where delayed post-test DCT means were 32.80 (CI), 20.20 (SI), and 19.73 (control). The article reports these trends descriptively; no delayed-period test statistic or effect size is printed for this contrast.
"the pragmalinguistics- and sociopragmatics-focused instruction (CI) group demonstrated further gains from the time of the post-test to the delayed post-test test, whereas the sociopragmatics-focused instruction (SI) group demonstrated losses from the time of the post-test to the delayed post-test."
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Time and Continuity — moderator: an instructional effect differs with it
Related Claims¶
- Both CI and SI groups significantly outperformed the control group on recognizing English request hedges, with no significant difference between the two treatments — related
- Combined pragmalinguistics- and sociopragmatics-focused input-based instruction (CI) produced significantly better written production of English request hedges than sociopragmatics-focused instruction alone (SI) and a control group — related
- Cognitive training gains are maintained or further enhanced at two-month follow-up — related
- Both groups lost a statistically significant number of learnt words between the immediate post-test and the delayed test ten days later — related
- Descriptive trends showed the treatment group improving slightly from pre- to post-test and continuing to improve at delayed post-test, while the control group declined then recovered — related
