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? A New Zealand survey study cited by the review found students felt more confident and less anxious under experienced endodontic supervision. → Chien 2025

Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Pooled risk difference across 11 student‐clinic studies is 0.43 but with considerable heterogeneity (I² = 93%) — related
- Mastery learning has overall positive effects on student affect, with the exception of slightly lower grade expectations — a broader claim this one bears on
