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? Children's mastery of early numeric competencies at 54 months of age predicts their later high school math course-taking. → Pamela Davis-Kean 2021

q2 · i? · associational · r?
The article's title and abstract state the study's central longitudinal finding: early numeracy mastery measured in the SECCYD sample "predicts high school math course-taking". The available text is the abstract only; no effect sizes or test statistics are printed, so the association's magnitude is not reported here.
"It matters how you start: Early numeracy mastery predicts high school math course-taking and college attendance"
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Number Sense — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes
