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? Topics treated explicitly in the telecasts yielded large knowledge gains, whereas topics treated sketchily or indirectly were not learned by most reservists. → Audio-Visual Communication Review 1951

Evidence

Audio-Visual Communication Review, research abstracts on television instruction. (1951). https://eric.ed.gov/?q=Training+by+Television+Study+in+Learning+and+Retention

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Within the telecast evaluation, learning differed by how topics were treated. The digest reports explicit treatment "resulted in large knowledge gains" while sketchy or indirect treatment was "not learned by most of the reservists"; no effect size is printed.

"topics which were treated explicitly resulted in large knowledge gains, whereas topics treated sketchily or indirectly were not learned by most of the reservists"
