q2 · i? · design · r2

Post-test comparison of two ordering questions in the same single-group study of 30 deaf students: 18 correct answers for close bodies (Sun-Jupiter-Earth-Moon) and 16 correct for far bodies (Space-Galaxy-Star-Earth), reported as frequencies in Tables 8 and 9.

"when compared with the results in Table 8, the students were found to be more successful in ordering the close celestial bodies than ordering far celestial bodies."
