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.
q2 i? Being female tripled the odds of being in the Moderately Attained profile at T1 and the Resistor profile at T2, compared to the Devalued/Ambivalent profile. → Melody Wilson & Jamaal Sharif Matthews 2024

q2 · i? · associational · r2
Multinomial logistic regression results for background variables; sex was significantly associated with profile membership while age was not. The article reports that "being female tripled the odds" of the positively oriented profiles at each wave; no standardized effect size is reported, so impact is null.
"At T1, being female tripled the odds of being in the Moderately Attained pro file compared to the Devalued/Ambivalent pro file; at T2, being female tripled the odds of being in the Resistor pro file compared to the Devalued/Ambivalent profile."
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Gender — predictor: outcomes differ by group: a gap reflecting circumstances and treatment, not a cause
