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? Compared with text-based learning, the effect of OCDE on cognitive skills gain is uncertain (RM range 0.91-1.46; 3 trials with 4 interventions; 68 participants; very low-grade evidence). → Wahabi HA 2019

q2 · i? · quant-synthesis · r2

Systematic review synthesis of 3 RCTs with 4 interventions comparing OCDE with text-based learning on cognitive skills. In 3 comparisons OCDE was significantly more effective than text (RM range 1.14-1.46); in the fourth there was no difference (RM=0.91).

"Compared with text-based learning, the effect of OCDE on cognitive skills gain is uncertain (RM range 0.91-1.46; 3 trials with 4 interventions; 68 participants; very low-grade evidence)."
