Effect size (95% CI) | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| n | M | SD | n | M | SD | ||
| Baseline | 15 | 79.5 | 21.2 | 15 | 82.5 | 18.9 | |
| Follow-up | 15 | 77.4 | 20.0 | 15 | 88.8 | 10.0 | .49 (−0.25 to 1.20) |
Effect size is based on change scores using the formula d = M1 − M2 /σpooled. Values at follow-up are based on intent-to-treat analysis, carrying baseline values forward for eight participants lost to follow-up.
