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 i? FC students showed significantly higher self-directed learning and independent thinking ability than LBL students, with a pooled RR of 1.51 (95% CI 1.31–1.73) under a random-effects model; no standardized effect size was printed. → Zheng Hui 2026

q3 · i? · quant-synthesis · r2
Meta-analysis of 9 studies of self-directed learning and independent thinking ability; significant heterogeneity (I2 = 61.6%, p = 0.008) led to a random-effects model, giving "a pooled RR of 1.51" significant at p < 0.05. The article prints no standardized effect size for this finding.
"The meta-analysis showed that the FC group had significantly higher self-learning independent thinking ability than the LBL group, with a pooled RR of 1.51 (95% CI: 1.31–1.73)"
