STUDY FINDINGS Before comparing the group means‚ assumptions for the paired sample t-test were evaluated and no violations were noted. Results from the paired sample t-test revealed statistically significant differences (p <= .05) in student competency self-assessment between the pretest and the posttest‚ and the posttest and the retrospective test on all 19 competencies (Table 2).
