Resumen

Las variables bajo investigación relativas a este estudio indagaron en el conocimiento del inglés de los hermanos y en la ayuda aportada por estos. Esta investigación conectaba al mismo tiempo las variables con las notas de inglés derivadas a partir de cuatro exámenes escritos y cuatro de comprensión oral de inglés utilizados durante un año académico. Dichas notas provenían de alumnos españoles de un colegio español de primaria con un nivel de principiante. Además, estos alumnos rellenarían un cuestionario sobre antecedentes familiares y datos personales propios. De forma sucesiva, los datos fueron sometidos a un análisis de Medidas Repetidas de MANOVA (Medidas Repetidas de Análisis de Varianza Múltiple). Aquí se relatan las variables específicas que han revelado cifras estadísticamente muy significativas.
