Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q2 i? RMSEA2 fell under the 14-LO structure compared with the four-skill structure for the FCI, EMCS, and FMCE. → Vy Le 2026

q2 · i? · design · r2
Comparison with MCD-v1, which applied DINA to the same three RBAs with four broad skills. "The 14-LO structure improved fit for all three RBAs," with FMCE remaining the only marginal-fit assessment under both structures.
"The present 14-LO structure improved fit for all three RBAs: FCI RMSEA2 fell from 0.048 to 0.033, EMCS RMSEA2 fell from 0.028 to 0.022, and FMCE RMSEA2 fell from 0.090 to 0.065."
