q3 i2 Participants' self-reported preference for learning from videos (M = 6.79) exceeded their preference for learning from digital texts (M = 4.31), with Cohen's d = 0.75. → Lucia Mason 2022

Self-report preference comparison among the 255 participants reported in the Participants section. Despite this stated preference, the experiment found no comprehension or integration advantage for videos over texts.
"Participants reportedly preferred learning from videos (M = 6.79, SD = 2.16) more than learning from digital texts ( M = 4.31, SD = 2.08), t(154) = 12.01, p < .001, Cohen’s d = 0.75)."
