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 i? Among ADHD subtypes, the inattentive type had the lowest learning ability score compared with combined and hyperactive-impulsive types (P = 0.019). → Mohamed A. Ahmed 2014

Mohamed A. Ahmed, Khaled A. El-Beh, Talal A. Mohammed, Dina F. Mansour, Mohammed Y. Ezz-Eldine. (2014). Learning Disabilities in Different Types of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorders and its Relation to Cortical and Brainstem Function.

q3 · i? · associational · r1
One-way comparison of learning disability scores across ADHD subtypes (28 combined, 9 inattentive, 3 hyperactive-impulsive). Means were ADHD-C 2.92, ADHD-I 2.40, ADHD-HI 2.97; the subtype difference reached P = 0.019.
"The inattentive type had the worst score in comparison to combined and hyperactive-impulsive type (P = 0.019) (Table 2, Fig. 1)."
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Attention — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes
