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.
q3 i? Group effects were not significant on total reading time of explanations (t(138) = 0.40, p = 0.69), total response time (t(138) = 1.35, p = 0.18), motivation (t(138) = −0.60, p = 0.55), or accuracy (t(138) = 1.33, p = 0.19). → Ozcelik 2013

q3 · i? · causal · r2
In the randomized experiment, independent samples t-tests found "the group effect was not significant on total reading time of explanations" and response time, and "no significant difference in motivation between the groups"; accuracy likewise showed no difference (t(138) = 1.33, p = 0.19).
"It was found that the group effect was not significant on total reading time of explanations, t(138) ¼ 0.40, p ¼ 0.69 and the total response time to questions, t(138) ¼ 1.35, p ¼ 0.18. In addition, there was no significant difference in motivation between the groups, t(138) ¼/C0 0.60, p ¼ 0.55."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Higher response time, accuracy, and motivation correlate with higher post-test scores; reading time of explanations does not — related
- Uncertainty in a game-like learning environment enhances post-test learning outcomes — related
- Post-test performance is positively associated with accuracy, response time, uncertainty, and motivation — related
