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? Post-intervention science attitudes did not differ significantly between treatment and comparison groups (point estimate 0.39; p ~ 0.55). → Li 2019

q2 · i? · causal · r1
Quasi-experimental pilot measuring attitudes with the 14-item Learning Activation Lab survey (pre-survey reliability 0.78). The adjusted difference was 0.39 with p ~ 0.55, described as no significant difference; equivalence was not tested.
"The results did not show a significant difference in post-implementation science attitudes (as measured by Emerging STEM Learning Activation Survey), with an a of 0.05 (point estimate of 0.39; p ~ 0.55; see Table 9)."
