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? Re-estimating the local-calendar specification on 2025 alone gives a response of 0.135 (0.015), comparable to 0.127 (0.017) in 2023 and 2024. → Nick Huntington-Klein 2026

Nick Huntington-Klein 2026¶
Nick Huntington-Klein. (2026). Little Impact of ChatGPT on High School Test Scores. arXiv. https://arxiv.org/abs/2605.08812 doi:10.48550/arxiv.2605.08812
q2 · i? · associational · r?
Re-estimation of the in-session fixed-effects specification on 2025 data alone. The article reports the response "0.135 (0.015)***", showing students still used ChatGPT on the school calendar despite no visible aggregate dip.
"Re-estimating the local-calendar specification of Table1 on 2025 alone gives a response of 0.135 (0.015)*** in 2025, against 0.127 (0.017)*** in 2023 and 2024."
