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.
q2 i? Privacy concerns were consistent in automatic activity tracking cases (1, 2, X) but not substantial in manual mood-tracking cases (3 and 4), which the authors interpret as manual tracking being a conduit for user control. → Pammer-Schindler 2021

q2 · i? · qualitative · r2
Cross-case comparison within the secondary analysis of five cases; the authors interpret manual tracking as "a conduit for user control" allowing curation of what is collected. No effect sizes printed.
"In those cases with manual tracking (Cases 3 and 4) no substantial privacy concerns appeared, whereas privacy concerns were a consistent issue in the cases related to automatic activity tracking (Cases 1, 2, X)."
