Morris, Stephen P.; Edovald, Triin; Lloyd, Cheryl; Kiss, Zsolt – Educational Research and Evaluation, 2016
Based on the experience of evaluating 2 cross-age peer-tutoring interventions, we argue that researchers need to pay greater attention to causal mechanisms within the context of school-based randomised controlled trials. Without studying mechanisms, researchers are less able to explain the underlying causal processes that give rise to results from…
