Perhaps the time scale has affected the respondent's interpretation of the questions? Perhaps try finding the standard error (Standard deviation) of each of the answers.

I think I need to look at how the time has affected the respondent's interpretation of the peer feedback activity. The students knew that they will be doing another peer feedback activity and maybe that might trigger them to think about the structure of the peer feedback activity. My observation during the second peer feedback activity was the students were more comfortable and they knew what they needed to do as compared to the first activity where the students were struggling/grappling to see whether they were on the right track.

I was wondering whether I can do a standard deviation of each answer because they are 1 for Yes and 2 for No. I am not sure whether doing this would make sense? Sorry I am new here, please explain why you suggest doing standard deviation for each answer. Thanks.
