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? Intervention families' after-viewing prompts addressed science at roughly twice the rate of comparison families (64% vs 32%), with smaller differences before viewing (25% vs 17%). → Dominguez 2021

Coding of family conversations as addressing science, peripherally, or not, across Cohort 1 in-person sessions. The report states "Approximately, 64% of the intervention families’ after episode viewing prompts were found to address science, while only 32% of prompts from comparison families were science related"; before viewing the figures were 25% vs approximately 17%.
"Approximately, 64% of the intervention families’ after episode viewing prompts were found to address science, while only 32% of prompts from comparison families were science related"
