q3 i? Between-group homogeneity testing showed no statistically significant difference in effect sizes between studies lasting 1–4 weeks (d = 0.906) and 5–10 weeks (d = 1.222) (QB=2.429 < X2=3.841; p=0.119). → Yildirim 2022

q3 · i? · quant-synthesis · r2

Moderator analysis comparing 13 studies of 1–4 weeks (d = 0.906, moderate) with 25 studies of 5–10 weeks (d = 1.222, strong). The between-group test found "no statistically significant difference between the groups", so achievement did not change by duration.

"Since the homogeneity value of QB=2.429, calculated in this study, was smaller than the accepted critical value of 3.841 (QB=2.429.05), it could be assumed that there was no statistically significant difference between the groups."
