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? The experimental group completed the physical post-test significantly faster than the control group. → Giles Westerfield 2015 q2 i? There was no significant difference between groups in the number of errors made during the physical post-test. → Giles Westerfield 2015 (2)

q2 · i? · causal · r2

In the physical post-test, participants reassembled the five components without tutor help. The experimental group's mean completion time was 56.56 s (SD 11.31) versus 81.13 s (SD 21.11); participants "completed the physical task significantly faster than their peers (t(14) = 2.9, p<.0 2)".

"There was no significant difference on the number of errors made, but the experimental group participants completed the physical task significantly faster than their peers (t(14) = 2.9, p<.0 2)."

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Error counts in the physical post-test were 0.50 (SD 0.93) for the experimental and 1.00 (SD 0.93) for the control group; the article reports "no significant difference on the number of errors made". Equivalence was not tested.

"The errors generally fit into two categories: failing to match a name with the correct component, or incorrectly performing an installation procedure. There was no significant difference on the number of errors made"
