Subclaims¶

q3 i0 At post-test the experimental group reported significantly lower self-regulatory deficit than the control group (d = 0.17). → Tania Vieites 2024 q3 i? Control-group self-regulatory deficits increased significantly from pre-test to post-test, while MITCA-group deficits remained at the same level. → Tania Vieites 2024 (2)

q3 · i0 · causal · r1

Post-test between-group t-tests in the MITCA intervention with 533 fifth and sixth graders. The article reports "self-regulatory deficit (t = -2.557, p < 0.05, d = 0.17)" 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 each group in the twelve-week intervention. The article reports that control students' deficits rose significantly while for MITCA students "the reports for the self-regualtory deficits remained at the same level"; no effect size is printed.

"in the post-test measure, the control group reported significantly more shirking their academic obligations, losing notes or materials needed to study, waiting until the last minute to do homework or giving up, to a greater extent than in the pre-test measure. This tendency was not observed among the students who participated in MITCA as the reports for the self-regualtory deficits remained at the same level."
