Subclaims¶
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? The estimated impact of the Kauffman School on student attendance is positive and significant in some grades and not significantly different from zero in others. → Matthew Johnson 2016

q3 · i? · causal · r?
In the same matched comparison group evaluation, attendance impacts varied by grade: "positive and significant in some grades and not significantly different from zero in others." No effect sizes or grade-specific statistics are printed in the available text; equivalence was not tested.
"The estimated impact of Kauffman School on student attendance is positive and significant in some grades and not significantly different from zero in others"
