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? Team readiness assurance test scores exhibited predominantly weak correlations with lecture assessment scores, with statistical significance observed only for TRAT 1 and TRAT 5 with the final exam and TRAT 1 with Exam 1. → Bell 2022
Evidence¶
Bell 2022¶
Bell, E. C. (2022). Individual Vs. team based readiness assurance testing in pharmacy calculations. International Journal of Instruction, 15(1), 733-746. https://doi.org/10.29333/iji.2022.15142a
q2 · i? · associational · r1
Spearman correlation analysis of the same 69-student cohort's TRAT scores against lecture assessments. The study reports "predominantly weak ( -.2 < r < .3) correlations"; Table 1 shows significance only for TRAT 1 with Exam 1 (p < .05) and Final Exam (p < .005), and TRAT 5 with Final Exam (p < .05). No single effect size is printed for the overall pattern.
"In contrast, team readiness assurance tests exhibited predominantly weak ( -.2 < r < .3) correlations with lecture assessment scores."
