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? The post-test attitude difference between the experimental and control groups was significant (t(20)=0.33, p < 0.01). → Eu 2006

Ten-item four-point Likert attitude test administered to both groups before and after the ten-week treatment; experimental post-test mean 2.61 (SD 0.24) versus control 2.55 (SD 0.43), reported as "significant with t(20)=0.33 as p < 0.01". No effect size is printed.
"the differences between the post-test of the experimental group and the control group as significant with t(20)=0.33 as p < 0.01."
