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? Observation, categorize, comparison, classification, order and measurement each scored higher after the activities, significant at P<.01 (t=19.000, 12.616, 9.646, 10.247, 9.374 and 10.247 respectively). → Chumark 2016

q2 · i? · causal · r1
Paired sample T-Tests on each of the six skills (5 questions each) in Table 2 (N=15); every skill's post-test average exceeded its pre-test average at P<.01.
"all the individual skills i.e. observation, categorize, comparison, classification, order, measurement, are higher than before participating in the activities with significant value at P<.01"
