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.
q3 i? Teachers randomly assigned to coaching had significantly lower rates of office discipline referrals for Black students (IRR = 0.76, p = .015) than non-coached teachers. → Bradshaw 2018
q3 i? Differences in referrals of White students and students overall were non-significant, and the Black-student finding did not survive false discovery rate adjustment at the 0.05 level. → Bradshaw 2018

q3 · i? · causal · r2
Two-level HLM experimental contrast within the teacher-level RCT (N = 158 teachers in 12 schools), comparing coached to comparison teachers on SWIS office disciplinary referral counts. Coached teachers' predicted value was 1.43 referrals of Black students versus 1.99 for non-coached teachers; "IRRs and differences in the average referrals of White students and students overall were non-significant."
"Specifically, referrals for Black students (β = -0.28, IRR = 0.76, p = .015) were significantly lower among those who received coaching."
