Changes in Objective Knowledge scores were compared between the two experimental groups by conducting ANOVAs, with experimental group, gender, and baseline Objective Knowledge scores as independent variables. Pre- and post-intervention Objective Knowledge scores were compared cross-sectionally between the two experimental groups using Pearson Chi-square tests.
