German term or phrase: Messzeitpunkteffekt
From the results section of a research paper: "Der fuer jede Variable nachweisbare Messzeitpunkteffekt wurde mittels t-tests genauer analysiert, indem der jeweilige Baselinewert mit jedem der 3 Werte nach Therapieende verglichen wurde."

Also, i presume t-tests is t-tests in english as well? Thanks!

agree  MMUlr: --> effect of time of measurement IMO - e.g., http://www.natap.org/2005/HIV/032105_02.htm//OK, but the term says "...zeitpunkt..." (?)
21 mins
  -> yes, when from the context it is clear that time does not refer to a time period but to time moment (otherwise it's ambiguous)

agree  Ken Cox: With MMUlr: 'time of measurement' is not ambiguous in English, it means the point in time when the measurement was made. Otherwise you'd say 'measurement interval'..
