q2 · i3 · associational · r1
Observations of 32 on-computer activity sessions (one pupil pair per class per activity) using the 8-item engagement part of the Integration Checklist. The article reports d = 1.29 for the senior-versus-junior contrast.
"Senior class pupils (2a and 2b) M = 6.19, SD = 2.74 engaged to a higher extent in computer activities than junior class pupils (1a and 1b), t(30) = 2.88, p = .01, d = 1.29."
