q2 · i? · causal · r1

Pretest-posttest control group experiment with 24 students per group, equated on pretest scores by matching. The posttest t test gave t = 3.79, df = 46, p = .000, so the null hypothesis was rejected; means were "66.83 and that of control group was 55.33".

"The mean of the experimental group was found 66.83 and that of control group was 55.33. The standard deviations were 11.09 and 9.86 respectively."
