q3 · i? · causal · r1

Independent-samples t-tests on pre- and post-test data from the MITCA intervention with 533 students. The article reports the hypothesis "was not confirmed" and a pre-test difference "in favour of the control group" (t = 2.104, p < 0.05, d = 0.14); no effect size is printed for the post-test null.

"The hypothesised difference in information seeking and help management skills between the two groups was not confirmed. As already referred above, an initial significant difference in favour of the control group had been found in information seeking and help management skills, (t = 2.104, p < 0.05, d = 0.14)."
