q3 · i? · review · r2

Randomized controlled trial in which 150 informal caregivers were randomly divided into the iCare Condition (ICC) or the Education/Information-Only Condition (EOC), using a 3-month iCare Stress Management e-Training Program; the review reports the printed p value of .017 for the between-condition contrast.

"The main outcome was a change in perceived stress; it was significant for the ICC but not the EOC (p = .017)."
