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 inhibition, updating, and shifting, inhibition accounted for the largest share of variance in age-related differences in affective theory of mind. → Vetter 2013
