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? Sample size (QB = 1.007, p = 0.316), practice time (QB = 0.173, p = 0.678) and method (QB = 11.416, p = 0.576) show no statistically significant differences between groups. → Mehmet Fatih Ayaz 2015

Mehmet Fatih Ayaz, Hanifi Şekerci. (2015). The Effects of the Constructivist Learning Approach on Student's Academic Achievement: A Meta-Analysis Study. The Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology, 14(4). https://eric.ed.gov/?id=EJ1077612
q3 · i? · quant-synthesis · r2
Moderator analyses (Table 2, analogue ANOVA) for sample size, practice time and method. The article reports no statistically significant difference for these moderators; equivalence was not tested. Descriptively, method effects ranged from 7E (ES = -0.051) to invention (ES = 2.776).
"There could find a statistically significant difference between groups which formed for publication types, courses and educational levels. There could not find a statistically significant difference between other groups."
