q2 · i? · quant-synthesis · r2

Single pretest-post-test study included in the review (Canada, n = 134); Table 1 reports "Significant improvement in pretest and post-test scores (p < 0.01)". Only a p-value is printed, so impact is null.

"Significant improvement in pretest and post-test scores (p < 0.01). Most students felt they had minimal ophthalmology exposure (2.11/5) but expressed interest in additional lectures (4.02/5)."
