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.
q2 i? Control group students taught with existing methods showed no statistically significant pre-test to post-test difference in CCT-X scores, with means declining. → Filiz Demirci 2017

q2 · i? · causal · r1
Dependent-groups t-test on CCT-X scores of the 30-student control group taught with existing teaching methods; t= 0.87, p= 0.40, with post-test means lower than pre-test means. Equivalence was not tested.
"there is no statistically significant difference between the pre -test and post-test scores for the students in the control group. It can be seen that the CCT-X post-test score means (Mpost-test= 37.57) are lower when compared with the pre -test score means (Mpre-test= 38.27)"
