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 i3 A paired t-test revealed significant improvement from pre-test (M = 14.41, SD = 5.826) to post-test (M = 19.33, SD = 6.131) with a large effect size (Cohen's d = 0.823). → Henderson 2020

q2 · i3 · design · r2
One-group pre/post comparison of 316 students' genetics knowledge after classroom gameplay of Geniventure over several days. The paired t-test showed "a significant improvement from pre-test to post-test" with "Cohen's d = 0.823."
"Results from a paired t-test on students' knowledge pre-test (M = 14.41, SD = 5.826) and post-test (M = 19.33, SD = 6.131) revealed a significant improvement from pre-test to post-test (t(315) = 14.663, p < 0.01, Cohen's d = 0.823)."

Related Claims¶
- Students showed significant content-knowledge gains from pre-test to post-test after the Digital World level — related
- All ten multimedia treatment conditions produced significant pre-to-post achievement gains with medium or high effect sizes — a broader claim this one bears on
- First- and second-grade students' multiple-choice understanding of particle behavior improved significantly after seven STEP mixed-reality sessions. — a broader claim this one bears on
