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 i1 The second-year Academic Competence Composite effect was statistically significant (effect size 0.26, p = 0.02), though it does not factor into the intervention rating. → Early Risers 2012

q3 · i1 · causal · r2
Supplemental second-year findings from the same 20-school randomized sample (199 students): the Academic Competence Composite showed a mean difference of 0.17, effect size 0.26, improvement index +10, and p-value 0.02, favoring the intervention group. These supplemental findings do not factor into the determination of the intervention rating.
