Reading Intervention: Pretest–Posttest Across Two Arms

Research information
Statement of the problem

This program-evaluation study compares a reading-intervention arm against a control arm across 50 students (25 per arm), each measured at pretest and posttest — a mixed ANOVA design testing whether the intervention accelerates reading gains beyond what happens in the control group.

Objectives
  • To describe reading_score across the pretest and posttest phases within each arm.
  • To determine whether reading_score differs across arm and phase, with subject_id identifying the repeated measurements per student.
