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.

q4 i? Across all five coded instructional roles, the use of ITS was associated with statistically significant effect sizes under both fixed- and random-effects models. → Wenting Ma 2014

q4 · i? · quant-synthesis · r?

Moderator analysis of ITS intervention role (Table 2) coded using the categories of Steenbergen-Hu and Cooper (2014): principal instruction, integrated class instruction, separate in-class activities, supplementary after-class instruction, and homework. Random-effects means ranged from .33 to .47, all statistically significant; the between-levels difference was not statistically significant under a random-effects model but was significant under a fixed-effect model, QB(5) = 32.38, p < .001.
