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.
q4 i? Of 10 tested moderator variables, only age significantly moderated both CI effects (p < 0.0001 for Δ pre-post and Δ pre-retention), and female proportion significantly moderated the Δ pre-post effect (p = 0.009). → Achraf Ammar 2024

q4 · i? · quant-synthesis · r3
Multivariate subgroup analyses and meta-regression across the 36 studies tested 10 moderator variables (age groups, experience level, sports/skills, testing protocol, sex proportion, intervention duration, sessions, trials, between-test duration). Only age (p < 0.0001) and female proportion (p = 0.009) reached significance; no effect sizes are printed.
"Out of 10 tested variables, only the age significantly moderated both CI effects (p < 0.0001 for both Δ pre-post and Δ pre-retention) and the female proportion significantly moderated only the first CI effect (p = 0.009 for Δ pre-post)."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Low (blocked) and high (random/serial) contextual interference practice do not differ significantly in acute skill gains (Δ pre-post) in PE and sports contexts — related
- High and low CI practice do not differ significantly in overall relatively permanent gains (Δ pre-retention) — related
- Only 20% of pooled performance outcomes agree with the paradoxical contextual interference effects — related
