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.

q3 i? The repeated-measures ANOVA on RC MICS pre- and post-tests showed a significant main effect for Test but non-significant effects for Group and the Group x Test interaction. → Lin 2016 q3 i2 Paired t-tests showed significant MICS pre-to-post improvements for the VNT and NT groups but not for the T group. → Lin 2016 (2)

q3 · i? · causal · r2

Repeated-measures ANOVA (Table 4) on RC MICS pre- and post-tests: Group F = .922, p = .401; Test F = 22.96, p = .000; Interaction F = .72, p = .488. One-way ANOVA of the MICS post-test showed no significant differences among the three groups.

"the results of a repeated measures ANOV A on the RC MICS pre- and post-tests [Test (Pre, Post) x Group (T, NT, VNT)] show a significant main effect for Test and non-significant effects for Group and the interaction of both"

q3 · i2 · causal · r1

Paired t-tests on RC MICS pre- and post-scores: VNT t = -5.45, p = .000; NT t = -2.98, p = .006; T t = -1.66, p = .107. The T group's improvement was not significant.

"the VNT group achieved a significantly higher score on the MICS post-test (M = 75.56) than on the pretest ( M = 65.56), r = -0.34; the NT group also achieved a significantly higher score on the MICS post-test (M = 75.63) than the pretest ( M = 65.93), r = -0.31"
