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? A one-way repeated measures ANOVA found a significant effect of time of testing (p = .001). → Zambo 1994
q2 i? The Time-of-test by Group interaction was significant (p = .006), with group defined by gender and test sequence. → Zambo 1994 (2)

Omnibus repeated measures ANOVA on the four gender-by-sequence groups (n=155); Table 2 prints Time SS=6.238, F=11.511, p=.001 and Time*Group F=4.259, p=.006. No effect size printed.
"A repeated measures Analysis of Variance found a significant effect for time of testing (P=.001) and a significant interaction effect of time of testing, test sequence, and gender (P=.006)."

The interaction is described as disordinal and strongest for females who received the formatted version after the unformatted; Figure 1 plots pre and post means by group. Pretest ANOVA among groups was non-significant (p = .375).
"These results do indicate a significant effect of Time-of-test by Group (p = .006). Figure 1 provides a graphic representation of the disordinal effect we found indicating a strong change for female students receiving the formatted version after the unformatted"
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- In one word-problem study, females gained significantly when the formatted procedural plan came after an unformatted test, and scored lower when the formatted test came first — related
- No significant gender difference in word-problem performance on either formatted or unformatted test forms — related
- Retention differs by type of knowledge tested, with concepts and rules retained best and problem solving worst — related
- In a randomized trial of SRL interventions in an online mathematics preparation course, group and time interacted significantly on SRL knowledge, self-efficacy and the SRL overall score, with Group TDP (training + diary + peer feedback) showing the most prominent gains — related
- SRL interventions in a four-week online mathematics preparation course did not significantly change the mathematics overall score (interaction marginal), while the mathematics focus score on self-chosen chapters showed a statistically significant group by time interaction — related
- Comprehension ratings diverge across training conditions over repeated passages, with a significant condition-by-trial interaction — related
- Evaluation accuracy differed by problem type, with a significant time-by-problem-type interaction: confounded designs remained hardest after instruction — related
- Learning timing produces Group X Time interactions in both memory systems: declarative consolidation time courses differ between afternoon and evening groups, and finger-tapping speed and accuracy show highly significant Group X Time interactions — related
- The training group outperforms controls on social problem resolution, with a significant group effect and a marginal interaction — related
