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.
q3 i? The math domain average effect was g = 0.70 (95% CI [0.31, 1.10]) from a small set of studies. → Polanin 2024
Evidence¶
Polanin 2024¶

q3 · i? · quant-synthesis · r1
Unconditional random-effects meta-analysis of the math outcome domain, drawn from only k = 6 eligible studies per the article. The printed average was "g = 0.70, SE = 0.20, 95% CI[0.31, 1.10]".
"math (g = 0.70, SE = 0.20, 95% CI[0.31, 1.10])"
Polanin 2024 (2)¶

q3 · i? · quant-synthesis · r3
Sensitivity analysis comparing studies with and without missing confirmatory moderator information in the math domain: g with missing = 1.09 versus g without missing = 0.38, a nearly threefold difference.
"For math, however, we found that studies with at least some missing information had effects nearly three times as large (g with missing = 1.09 vs. g without missing = 0.38)."
