Subclaims¶

q2 i? Male and female students did not differ significantly in adjusted physics concept understanding (F = .010, not significant). → Kumar 2013

Evidence¶

Kumar 2013¶

Kumar, A., & Mathur, M. (2013). Effect of Concept Attainment Model on Acquisition of Physics Concepts. Universal Journal of Educational Research, 1(3), 165-169. https://doi.org/10.13189/ujer.2013.010304

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Null result from the 2x2 factorial ANCOVA: "The adjusted F-value of Gender is .010, which is not significant". The null hypothesis of no gender effect was not rejected; equivalence was not tested.

"The adjusted F-value of Gender is .010, which is not significant. It indicates that the adjusted mean scores of physics concept understanding of students belonging to male group and female group did not differ significantly"
