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? In an end-of-course survey of 24 consenting graduate students, 75% agreed they learned more than they would have in a comparable course without an AI companion (M = 2.96, SD = 0.91). → Sidorkin 2026

q2 · i? · design · r2
Descriptive analysis of an end-of-course survey completed by 24 consenting students in LEAD 503, a purpose-built instrument treated as descriptive rather than latent-construct measurement. The finding reports perceived learning value: "Seventy-five percent agreed that they learned more than they would have in a comparable course without an AI companion."
"Seventy-five percent agreed that they learned more than they would have in a comparable course without an AI companion (29% fully agree; M = 2.96, SD = 0.91)."
