So the environments do not fall into false results the researchers made a very detail list in which only individual schools can fit, in that way there is no bias applications to both types of schooling "...gender composition of school affected achievement when student-driven selection effects were controlled" (Hayes, Pahlke, and Bigler 696). The researchers became very picky when deciding which schools to choose to be part of their experiment. Most of the time the way that the researchers gather their results by handing out tests to the students of the specific school of their choosing. It was pretty difficult to compare results from single-sex as well as coeducational because they both either had to be private or public not either way so the outcome can be more accurate in which could have a higher success rate. "Furthermore, schools achievement levels are typically correlated with a host of school-level variables, including the percent of the student body that lives in poverty, student race/ethnicity, class size, and teacher experience." (Hayes, Pahlke, and Bigler 696). In the article The Efficacy of Single-Sex Education: Testing for Selection and Peer Quality Effects, researchers set up an experiment with middle school students to determine which of the students had high level of performance between single-sex and coeducational students. The results of the experiment were not dramatic, even though, single-sex group did slightly better. "...the overall achievement level of student body was a significant predictor of individual students ' achievement ...School district data indicated that the target single-sex school in this study was the highest achieving of 18 regular public middle schools..." (Hayes, Pahlke, and Bigler 700). All the school did incredibly well, in the diagrams from all the researchers
