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.

q1 i? The authors assert that functional integration of the five foundations increases the probability of success, and failure to account for all foundations interactively causes predictable threats to the environment's integrity. → Land 1996

q1 · i? · theoretical · r2

Theoretical argument in the Foundations section, illustrated with Figures 2a-2d showing disconnected environments. The authors argue that "failure to account for all foundations interactively causes predictable threats to the integrity of the environment." No empirical test is reported.

"The five foundations are functionally integrated in learning systems designs. The better integrated the foundations, the greater probability of success in the setting for which it is designed."
