Intervention type

Race/ethnicity

Gender

First generation status

Rasch measure learning gains

p = 000619*

p = 0.8994 (Asian), 0.8486 (URM)

p = 0.1889

p = 0.8908

Raw measure learning gains

p = 0.00695*

p = 0.6875 (Asian), 0.3724 (URM)

p = 0.4012

p = 0.2549

  1. Learning gains were measured by both Rasch measures and raw scores to determine whether results were consistent. Separate regressions were used to measure the impact of intervention type, race/ethnicity, gender, or first-generation status on the learning gains and p values are reported for each interaction
  2. Interactions with a p value less than the critical value of 0.01 are indicated by an asterisk
