q2 · i? · causal · r?

In the same difference-in-differences-in-differences analysis of district student-level data, the article reports that "Effects on 4- and 5-year graduation rates are imprecisely estimated." No effect size or test statistic is printed, so the finding is reported as imprecision, not equivalence.

"Effects on 4- and 5-year graduation rates are imprecisely estimated."
