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? The experimental group's posttest mean was significantly higher than the control group's (t(50) = -2.64, p = .011). → Al-Mothana M. Gasaymeh & Osamah M. Aldalalah 2013
q2 i? After controlling for pretest scores as a covariate, posttest differences between the two groups remained statistically significant (F(1,49) = 12.55, p < .05). → Al-Mothana M. Gasaymeh & Osamah M. Aldalalah 2013 (2)

q2 · i? · causal · r1
Nonrandomized control group pretest–posttest quasi-experiment with 23 control and 29 experimental students in an introductory Visual Basic course. Independent-samples t-test on posttests: "t (50) = -2.64, p = .011", experimental mean higher.
"But the mean of the posttest scores for the participants in the control group (M = 69.34, SD = 13.5 0) was significantly different than the mean of the posttest scores for the participants in the experimental group (M = 77.93, SD = 9.86), t (50) = -2.64, p = .011."

q2 · i? · causal · r2
ANCOVA with pretest as covariate and teaching method (control vs experimental group) as independent variable confirmed the posttest difference: "F(1,49)=12.55, p < .05".
"The results indicate that after controlling for pretest scores, the differences in posttest scores are statistically significantly different between the two groups, F(1,49)=12.55, p < .05."
