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? Houston students overall gained 0.06 standard deviations (32 days of learning) more than the state average in math, significant at p < 0.01, while reading growth of 0.01 SD (2 days) was not significant. → CREDO 2022
