Subclaims¶

q2 i? The nonparametric Mann-Whitney U test confirmed that session A and session B score distributions differed statistically (midterm p = 0.0008; final p = 0.0168). → Huang and Hsu 2011

Evidence¶

Huang and Hsu 2011¶

Chin-Wen Huang, Chun-Pin Hsu. (2011). Using Online Games To Teach Personal Finance Concepts. American Journal of Business Education – December 2011 Volume 4, Number 12. https://eric.ed.gov/?id=EJ1056617

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Nonparametric robustness check reported in Section 4 alongside the t-tests for the same two-session comparison. Table 2 prints Mann-Whitney p-values of 0.0008 (midterm) and 0.0168 (final). No effect size is printed.

"The results of the Mann-Whitney U test also demonstrate that the data from session A were statistically different from those of session B."
