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.
q2 i? Sex showed no significant influence on pupils' numeracy performance (F = 0.14; p>0.05); no effect size was printed. → Gbenga-Akanmu & Jegede 2019
Evidence¶
Gbenga-Akanmu & Jegede 2019¶
Gbenga-Akanmu, T. O., & Jegede, P. O. (2019). Influence of Meta-cognitive Training and Cognitive Styles on Numeracy Achievement of Nigerian Pupils’ in Computer-mediated Classrooms. World Journal of Education, 9(1). https://doi.org/10.5430/wje.v9n1p221
q2 · i? · causal · r1
ANCOVA (Table 2) of the quasi-experiment with sex and pre-test score as covariates reports a non-significant sex effect (F = 0.14; p = 0.7152); equivalence was not tested and no effect size is printed.
"The results also showed that sex has no significant influence (F = 0.14; p>0.05) on pupils’ performance."
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Gender — predictor: outcomes differ by group: a gap reflecting circumstances and treatment, not a cause
- Number Sense — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes
