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 i1 In the experiential group, MRC improved reliably from pre-test to five weeks (∆M = +0.16, d = 0.37, BH-corrected p = .048), while the instructional group plateaued. → Pau Benazet i Montobbio 2026

q3 · i1 · causal · r2
Within-group trajectory analysis across T0, T1 and T5 in the longitudinal quasi-experiment. The experiential group's MRC improved reliably (∆M = +0.16; p = .002; d = 0.37; BH p = .048); the instructional group's MRC remained flat after a small immediate gain.
"The instructional group (G1) shows a small immediate gain that is followed by a plateau. In contrast, the experiential group (G2) displays an immediate gain which is followed by continued growth."
