POCI = in Abstract

e.g. P: adults with type 2 diabetes

O response variables: glycated hemoglobin (AIC), subject's weight * two time periods (pre- and 6-month-post program)

C: 2 types of education being received (diabetes patient education OR augumanted by a community self-management program) = explanatory variables

I: 2 types of education being received *assigned

POCI ⇒ Inerventional RQ ⇒ experiment

Population, Outcome, Comparison and Intervention

Example 1: Unit of observation = each flower

Unit of analysis = each bunch = 6

Example 2: Unit of observation = each frozen cube = 24

Unit of analysis = carton = 2 (regular milk & chocolate milk)

Example 3: Unit of observation = individual students

Unit of analysis = individual students

A two-tailed test, in statistics, is a method in which the critical area of a distribution is two-sided and tests whether a sample is greater than or less than a certain range of values. A two-tailed test will test both if the mean is significantly greater than x and if the mean significantly less than x.

A one-tailed test is a statistical test in which the critical area of a distribution is one-sided so that it is either greater than or less than a certain value, but not both.

explanatory = independent variables = explain changes in response

response = dependent variable = changed response to explanatory
