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 i3 On the delayed writing posttest, all experimental groups including the MC group scored significantly higher than the CO group with large effect sizes. → Jang 2020

q3 · i3 · causal · r2
Delayed posttest results for dictogloss writing accuracy in the four-session experiment, two weeks after the final CF treatment. The study reports all experimental groups "performed better than the CO group on the delayed posttest" with large effect sizes, including the MC group (d = 1.139).
"All the experimental groups performed better than the CO group on the delayed posttest. Effect sizes between the CO group and ea ch experimental group were large (d = 1.772 for DR; d = 1.139 for MC; d = 2.112 for MS; d = 1.186 for MN)."
