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 i? Of 163 effect sizes, 90.18% used self-report dishonesty measures and 84.66% assessed personal goals, indicating a disproportional use of correlational self-report designs. → Tanja Fritz 2023

q3 · i? · quant-synthesis · r3
Descriptive analysis of the 163 coded effect sizes from 33 studies: "self-reports of students’ engagement in academic dishonesty (90.18%)" dominated, with only seven behavioral effect sizes; 84.66% of goal measures were personal goals.
"Most academic dishonesty measures were self-reports of students’ engagement in academic dishonesty (90.18%), nine effect sizes represented intentions to cheat (5.52%) and seven effect sizes were behavioral measures of actually committed dishonesty (4.29%)"
