Subclaims¶

q3 i1 At post-test, the MITCA group scored significantly higher than the control group on environment management (d = 0.22), the largest between-group difference reported. → Tania Vieites 2024 q3 i? Within the MITCA group, environmental management was the only strategy showing a significant pre-to-post increase. → Tania Vieites 2024 (2)

q3 · i1 · causal · r1

Post-test between-group t-tests in the twelve-week MITCA intervention study with 533 students. The article reports "environment management (t = 3.243, p < 0.01, d = 0.22)" in favor of the experimental group.

"significant differences between the two groups in the post-test were found in behavioral and time management (t = 2.245, p < 0.05, d = 0.15), environment management (t = 3.243, p < 0.01, d = 0.22) and self-regulatory deficit (t = -2.557, p < 0.05, d = 0.17) in favor of the experimental group"

q3 · i? · causal · r1

Pre-post paired comparisons within the MITCA experimental group, reported alongside Fig. 3. The article states that "significant differences have only been found for environmental management (t = -2.77, p < 0.001)"; no effect size is printed for this within-group change.

"Although, as can be seen in Fig. 3, the means are higher for information seeking and time management, and are lower for self-reglation defictis for the experimental group, in which the MITCA method was implemented, significant differences have only been found for environmental management (t = -2.77, p < 0.001)."
