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.

q3 i3 The repeated-measures ANOVA on RC MACS pre- and post-tests showed significant main effects for Group, Test, and the Group x Test interaction. → Lin 2016 q3 i3 Only the VNT group showed a significant pre-to-post MACS improvement (post-test M = 77.78 vs pretest M = 67.22, r = -0.44); the T and NT groups did not improve significantly. → Lin 2016 (2)

q3 · i3 · causal · r2

Repeated-measures ANOVA (Table 3) on RC MACS pre- and post-tests: Group F = 4.86, p = .010; Test F = 13.51, p = .000; Interaction (Group x Test) F = 7.66, p = .001. The one-way ANOVA of the post-test gave F (2, 95) = 11.07, p = .000, with the VNT group (M = 77.78) exceeding the T group (M = 65.50), r = .53, p = .000, and the NT group (M = 70.46), r = .31, p = .022.

"the results of a repeated measures ANOV A on the RC MACS pre- and post-tests [Test (Pre and Post) x Group (T, NT, and VNT)] show significant main effects for Group, Test, and the interaction of both"

q3 · i3 · causal · r2

Paired t-tests on RC MACS pre- and post-scores for each group. "the VNT group achieved a significantly higher score on the MACS post-test (M = 77.78) than its scores on the pretest ( M = 67.22), r = -0.44"; NT and T groups showed no significant change.

"only the VNT group showed a significant difference between their MACS pre- and post-tests (VNT: t = -8.10, p = .000; NT: t = -1.85, p = .07; T: .614, p = .54)"
