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? Transfer test performance did not differ between groups; no effect size was printed for this finding. → P. Spangenberger 2025
Evidence¶
P. Spangenberger 2025¶
P. Spangenberger, N. Matthes, F. Kapp, L. Kruse, J. L. Plass. (2025). Orchestrating iVR technology in an authentic classroom setting and its effects on factual knowledge, comprehension and transfer. Education Tech Research Dev. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11423-024-10409-2
q2 · i? · causal · r2
Transfer was measured with a flashlight troubleshooting scenario (image ordering, 16 points; interrater Cohen's κ = 0.845). The ANOVA revealed no main effect; equivalence was not tested. Post-test means were low in both groups (2.07 vs 2.00).
"The analysis revealed no main effect for transfer, indicating that transfer test performance did not differ between groups, see Table 5."
