Grammar Survey
u
*The in-class grammar lessons in the control group (in both USA and
Macau) did elicit a statistically significant change in students
confidences throughout the semester.
*To see if the effect on the experimental group was larger than the
control group, the Pearson correlation coefficients revealed that the
smaller value of (R=.424) in the experimental group compared with the
larger value of (R=.589) in the control group means there was a larger
effect on the control group than the experimental group.
