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? Across the 43 studies reviewed, every school-based intervention examined was preventive or protective; none was corrective in approach, leaving students already using substances unmapped. → Bajpai Tewari 2026

Results statement of the scoping review (Abstract/Results synthesis) covering the 43 included studies identified through SCOPUS and Web of Science searches to December 2025. The review reports "there was no school-based intervention model that was corrective in its approach." This is a descriptive gap finding, not an effect estimate.
"All school-based interventions examined were preventive or protective in their approaches. There was no school-based intervention model that was corrective in its approach."
