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.
q1 i? The problems facing students of method require a rare combination of educational psychologist and empirical teacher, which Münsterberg thought impossible. → Clayton C. Kohl 1911

q1 · i? · theoretical · r2
Author's argument in the closing section of the article about who will carry out the needed research. The article counters Münsterberg's objection by maintaining that what is needed is not sympathy for the pupil's personality but "sympathy engendered by insight and directed to a pupil in a particular critical situation."
"The expert educational psychologist alone cannot solve them. Neither can the ex]>ert empirical teacher. It will be that rare combination of two, just that combination which Miinsterberg, in his Psychology and the Teacher, thinks impossible"
