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? The experimental group taught with the jigsaw technique scored significantly higher than the traditionally taught control group on the swtAT post-test. → Yapıcı 2016

Pre-test/post-test control group quasi-experiment with 53 7th graders (experimental n=25, control n=28) taught the unit for five weeks. The article reports a significant post-test difference favoring jigsaw, with means "XExperimental = 73,60; XControl = 51,28"; no effect size is printed.
"there is a significant difference in the mean scores of the control and experimental group's swtAT post -test. t (51) = 9 ,76; p<0,05"
