q3 i3 Eighth-grade students receiving POESPBEE scored significantly higher on the BSTE than the control group at post-test and follow-up, with large effect sizes (η2=0.35 and η2=0.32). → Calis 2020

q3 · i3 · causal · r2

Independent samples t-test on Behavior Scale toward Environment scores of the experimental (n=34) and control (n=28) groups after the ten-week application. The article reports η2=0.35 at post-test and η2=0.32 at follow-up, both indicating a large effect size.

"there was a significant difference between the post-test scores (t (60)=-5.62; p<.05) and follow-up test scores (t (60)=-5.25; p<.05) in favor of the experimental group."
