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 Pearson correlations showed significant positive relationships between teaching experience and each of the four factors, ranging from r = .20 (weak to moderate) to r = .45 (almost large). → Mahmoodarabi 2015

Mahmoodarabi 2015¶
Mahmoodarabi, M., & Khodabakhsh, M. R. (2015). Critical Pedagogy: EFL Teachers' Views, Experience and Academic Degrees. English Language Teaching, 8(6). https://doi.org/10.5539/elt.v8n6p100
q3 · i1 · associational · r2
Pearson correlation analysis of the 403 validated respondents (Table 6): experience correlated .264 with Factor 1, .453 with Factor 2, .200 with Factor 3, and .265 with Factor 4, all significant at the 0.01 level (2-tailed).
"teachers' experience had a significant but almost moderate relationship with Incorporation of Dialogue and Learners' Real Life into Second Language Instruction (r (401) = .26, P < .05, representing an almost moderate effect size), a significant and almost large relationship with Liberatory Autonomy (r (401) = .45, P < .05, representing an almost large effect size)"

q3 · i1 · associational · r2
Correlation for the fourth factor, decision making through negotiation, among the same 403 respondents: "r (401) = .26, P < .05". The article cautions the results should be interpreted cautiously due to moderate effect size values.
"Teachers' experience had a significant but almost moderate relationship with Decision Making through Negotiation (r (401) = .26, P < .05, representing an almost moderate effect size)."
