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 i1 A statistically significant positive Spearman correlation (rs = 0.426, p < 0.001) was found between perceived benefit and AAC experience scores. → Jarrar Hala 2026

q2 · i1 · associational · r1
Exploratory Spearman correlation analysis (valid n = 70) in the cross-sectional survey found "a statistically significant positive correlation" between the two parent-reported scores (rs = 0.426, p < 0.001).
"Spearman correlation analysis showed a statistically significant positive correlation between the perceived AAC benefit score and the seven-item AAC experience score (rs = 0.426, p < 0.001)."

Related Claims¶
- Exploratory subgroup and correlation analyses show mostly no significant differences in benefit or experience scores by child and family characteristics — related
- Parental awareness of alternative AAC systems is limited, and only about one-third agree AAC systems are suitable for all children — related
- Parents of children with autism using AAC commonly report perceived benefits, most frequently increased communication opportunities — related
- Barriers to integrating AAC into daily routines and accessing AAC programs are frequently reported despite high perceived benefits
