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? In a mixed-methods study, the podcast group achieved significantly higher self-regulation posttest scores than the radio-program group, t(52) = 3.45, p = .001. → Adrie A. Koehler 2023

q3 · i? · review · r2
Mixed-methods study of 54 female EFL students at an Iranian language institute; the experimental group listened to podcasts and the control group to radio programs, then both transcribed, summarized, and discussed them. The review reports the podcast group "achieved significantly higher scores than the participants from the control group, t(52) = 3.45; p = .001"; students also held positive perceptions of educational podcast use.
"the participants in the experimental group achieved significantly higher scores than the participants from the control group, t(52) = 3.45; p = .001, suggesting that the podcast had a greater effect on EFL students' self-regulation"
