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? Convergence with respect to individual outcomes was rather low. → Frank Fischer 2005
q3 i? Outcome convergence was relatively higher for application-oriented knowledge than for factual knowledge. → Frank Fischer 2005

In the same 64-student experiment, the article reports that "Convergence with respect to outcomes was rather low, but relatively higher for application-oriented knowledge than for factual knowledge." No effect size is printed in the available text.
