From the study, one can conclude that multiple sclerosis does have some effects on self efficiency, although the effect is the same for most types of learning processes. From the researched learning processes, usual teaching and computerized learning game, there was no difference. The two processes also had a study attrition of 10% which could be considered as the percentage of effect that the condition has on the patients. According to the research, one can conclude that there is no difference between the effect of MS on usual learning and computerized learning. Since MS affects the thinking and memory of a person, then we can conclude that the effect is the same on all types of learning processes (Iezzoni, 2010).
These results were insignificant because they did not give us a difference between the effects of the study attrition experienced by the patients who underwent usual teaching and those who underwent computerized learning. The main aim of the research was to prove that there is a difference between the two, which was not the case since both have similar affinity – which can lead us to the conclusion that there is no significant difference. The insignificant results were brought about by the inadequacy of data relating to other symptoms of MS or related symptoms that could have been the cause of the attrition that was discovered in the patients. Could be the MS could not have been the real cause. The researchers also did not compare the results of those people with MS and those without the condition.
In the results for the research, then there should have been more information that could have given us more direction in coming up with a more informed conclusion. In order to appraise these findings it would be prudent that the multiple sclerosis status of the patients be provided. Or at least, the symptoms are provided so as we can determine which group of patients had the condition. For example, MS patients could have little sensitivity and have problems in reading and writing (Kalb, 2012). Were there more symptoms being researched, it would be easier to come up with a b...
