Comparison of academic self-efficacy in the intervention and control groups before and after the intervention

Group	Before Intervention		After Intervention		Sig
	Mean	SD	Mean	SD
Intervention Group (n = 42)	148.38	12.10	170.71	10.58	= -30.835 p > 0.001
Control Group (n = 42)	144.66	10.95	149.42	11.99	= -1.808 p = 0.078
Sig	t$= 1.474 p = 0.144		t$= 8.625 p > 0.001

Note: The independent t-test was used to examine the difference between two independent groups in the variable academic self-efficacy. The paired t-test was employed to assess the significant difference within paired or matched samples in the variable academic self-efficacy

Abbreviations: n, number of participants; SD, standard deviation; , represents the Paired-Sample test statistic; t^$, represents the Independent-Sample test statistic; Sig, statistical significance; p, probability-value
