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? Participants distinguished two complementary functions of the AI mediator: private prompting surfaced implicit reasoning, and public reorganization made disciplinary positions easier to compare. → reorg-1

q2 · i? · qualitative · r3
Qualitative thematic analysis finding from the co-design workshop with 12 students: participants characterized the probe as a "secretary", "mediator", and "facilitator", and reported that "private prompting surfaced implicit reasoning, while public reorganization made disciplinary positions easier to compare". Descriptive qualitative finding; no effect size printed.
"Participants therefore distinguished two complementary functions: private prompting surfaced implicit reasoning, while public reorganization made disciplinary positions easier to compare."
