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.

q3 i2 The hybrid subgroup had a larger effect size on nurses' skills (SMD = 0.90) than the onsite subgroup (SMD = 0.44). → Pumsopa 2025

Subgroup analysis of nine studies (15 comparisons; 1249 participants) examining nurses' skills found "the hybrid subgroup having a larger effect size (SMD = 0.90, 95% CI = 0.67, 1.14) than the onsite subgroup (SMD = 0.44, 95% CI = 0.29, 0.58)"; heterogeneity was not observed within either subgroup.

"The effect sizes varied between the two subgroups (Chi2 = 11.32, p < 0.001; Figure 7), with the hybrid subgroup having a larger effect size (SMD = 0.90, 95% CI = 0.67, 1.14) than the onsite subgroup (SMD = 0.44, 95% CI = 0.29, 0.58)."
