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? Cheating is treated as a construct-irrelevant factor whose effects computer-based testing can help manage. → Steven Wise 2018

Education Inquiry 10(1), 21-33. https://www.nwea.org/research/publication/controlling-construct-irrelevant-factors-through-computer-based-testing-disengagement-anxiety-cheating/ doi:10.1080/20004508.2018.1490127
q2 · i? · theoretical · r1
The abstract states the article discusses managing "the effects of several common construct-irrelevant factors"; cheating is named in the article title as one of these factors. No empirical results appear in the available text.
"how these advantages can be used to manage the effects of several common construct-irrelevant factors is discussed"
