Evidence¶

Mohsen Alikhani & Esmaeil Bagheridoust 2017¶

Mohsen Alikhani & Esmaeil Bagheridoust. (2017). The Effect of Group Dynamics-Oriented Instruction on Developing Iranian EFL Learners' Speaking Ability and Willingness to Communicate. English Language Teaching, 10(11). https://doi.org/10.5539/elt.v10n11p44

q2 · i3 · causal · r2

One-way ANCOVA on posttest speaking ability (PET-based, CEF rubrics) with pretest as covariate. Experimental mean was 24.92 versus 19.13 for control; the article reports "partial η2 = .773 representing a large effect size".

"The results of one-way ANCOV A (F (1, 104) = 211.02, p = .000, partial η2 = .773 representing a large effect size) (Table 14) indicated that the experimental group significantly outperformed the control group on the posttest of SA after controlling for the possible effect of the pretes t."
