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? PET and PEESE models found non-significant slopes (PET slope −2.292, p = .396; PEESE slope −9.39, p = .669), indicating no substantial evidence of publication bias; published (r = .52) and grey literature (r = .49) did not differ significantly. → Keles 2025

q3 · i? · quant-synthesis · r3
Publication bias assessment of the correlational meta-analysis using contour-enhanced funnel plots, PET and PEESE models, and a publication-type moderator. The PET intercept was significant (0.742, t(65) = 3.763, p = 0.0037) but slopes were non-significant in both models; the review concludes "no substantial evidence of small-study effects or publication bias".
"This lack of significance in the slope indicates no substantial evidence of small-study effects or publication bias."
