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 i0 Experimental boys showed significantly greater cardiovascular endurance than control boys after ten weeks, with a negligible effect size (Cohen d = 0.17). → Rengasamy et al. 2011

q2 · i0 · causal · r2

Quasi-experimental pretest-posttest study with intact classes of Form Four boys (experimental n = 45, control n = 42); ANCOVA on posttest Cooper's Twelve Minute Run scores with pretest as covariate showed "a significant main effect for boys" with "Cohen d = 0.17".

"The result of ANCOVA in Table 3 indicates that there was a significant main effect for boys in cardiovascular endurance F(1,84) = 18.17, p <.05; Cohen d = 0.17."
