Subclaims¶

q2 i? No significant pretest difference between groups (t = 0.802, df = 89, p = 0.425; Mann-Whitney Z = .593, p = 0.553), ruling out an initial ability advantage. → Mahmoud Kaddoura 2013 q2 i? Posttest overall CT scores differed significantly between groups (t = 3.437, df = 89, p = 0.001; Mann-Whitney Z = 3.149, p = 0.002). → Mahmoud Kaddoura 2013 (2)

q2 · i? · causal · r2

Pretest comparison of the TPS and Non-TPS sections on the HESI CT test found no significant difference by t test (t=0.802, p = 0.425) or Mann-Whitney test (Z = .593, p = 0.553); equivalence was not formally tested beyond these non-significant results.

"This was confirmed by both an independent sample t -test (t=0.802, df = 89, p = 0.425) and non -parametric Mann -Whitney test (Z = .593, p = 0.553)."

q2 · i? · causal · r2

Posttest overall CT scores differed significantly between the experimental (TPS) and control (Non-TPS) groups on both the t test (t = 3.437, p = 0.001) and the Mann-Whitney test (Z = 3.149, p = 0.002).

"On the other hand, differences in the CT posttest scores, as implied by earlier analysis, were significant. This fact was confirmed by both an independent sample t-test (t = 3.437, df = 89, p = 0.001) and non-parametric Mann-Whitney test (Z = 3.149, p = 0.002)."
