Subclaims¶
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.
q2 i? A Two Way ANOVA showed a significant main effect of gender (F = 21.58, p < .05), with boys scoring higher than girls in both the NIM and control groups; the group-by-gender interaction was not significant (F = 1.058, p = .311). → Ayed H. Ziadat & Mohammad Soud A. AL-Awan 2018

q2 · i? · causal · r1
Two Way ANOVA on post-measurement reading fluency by group and gender (ten boys and ten girls per group, N = 40). Boys scored higher than girls in both groups: post-test means of 2.64 against 2.24 in the NIM group and 1.97 against 1.72 in the control group (gender F = 21.58, p < .05). The group-by-gender interaction was not significant (F = 1.058, p = .311), so the study does not show that NIM's effect differed by gender, although the authors conclude that NIM "was more effective with male's students". The gap is a difference between groups of students, not something gender causes. No effect size is printed.
"The (F) value for gender was calculated as (21.58), and its significant at le vel of (0.05), and the differences was in favor of males students with learning disabilities'"
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Reading Fluency — outcome: instruction changes it
