Subclaims¶

q2 i? The authors infer that male students (N=26, post-test M=19.35) performed better than female students (N=22, post-test M=19.23), yet the reported t-value of .259 with Sig .797 indicates no significant difference. → Sudha and Amutha 2015

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Post-test gender comparison in the same quasi-experiment: males (N=26) M=19.35, SD 1.495; females (N=22) M=19.23, SD 1.688; t=.259, Sig .797. The article states "male students performed better than the female students" as an inference, while its own table shows a non-significant difference.

"From this it is inferred that male students performed better than the female students in using WBI for learning the topic 'Purification of Organic Compounds' in chemistry."
