Subclaims¶

q2 i2 The experimental group earned significantly higher grades on case analysis assignments (M = 82.4 vs 76.1, d = 0.88), legal writing (d = 0.76), moot court (d = 0.65), final examination (d = 0.77), and overall course grade (d = 0.78). → Haifang Liu 2026 q2 i? 67% of experimental students earned B+ or higher versus 42% of controls (χ2 = 11.34, p = .001). → Haifang Liu 2026 (2)

q2 · i2 · causal · r2

Between-group comparison of course assessment components in the quasi-experiment (Table 6); the case-analysis contrast is quoted, and the article prints d values of 0.65–0.88 across components, all medium-to-large.

"the experimental group earned a significantly higher average grade on course assignments with a focus on case analysis (experimental group, M = 82.4, SD = 6.8, vs. Control Group, M = 76.1, SD = 7.4), t(178) = 5.93, p < .001, Cohen's d = 0.88"

q2 · i? · causal · r2

Chi-square analysis of final course grade distributions (Fig. 5); the article prints χ2 and p but no standardized effect size for this contrast, so impact is null.

"67% of experimental subjects to earn a course grade of B+ and higher as opposed to 42% of controls (χ 2 = 11.34, p = .001)"
