Effect sizes in Tables 2 and 3 were calculated for each outcome by standardizing the regression-adjusted difference between IS and Non-IS groups by the pooled (IS and Non-IS) standard deviation at pre-test: SEI = 0.21; IJA = 3.33; SPA = 3.19; EL T = 6.82; VR T = 8.93. Regression incorporates adjustment for pre-test values of each outcome variable and other predictors as detailed in the text.
