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? There was no significant difference between conditions in the number of inaccurate propositions recalled. → W.S. de Grave 2001
Evidence¶
W.S. de Grave 2001¶
W.S. de Grave, H.G. Schmidt & H.P.A. Boshuizen. (2001). Effects of problem-based discussion on studying a subsequent text: A randomized trial among first year medical students. Instructional Science 29: 33-44. https://link.springer.com/journal/11251
q3 · i? · causal · r2
Secondary ANOVA from the same randomized recall study showing the accuracy gain came from more accurate propositions, not from more errors; no effect size printed. Equivalence was not tested.
"There was no significant difference in the number of inaccurate propositions recalled (F(1,46) = 0.01, MSe = 12.90, p< 0.92)"
