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? Both pilot RCTs that measured resilience using validated scales (Brief Resilient Coping Scale; Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale) reported statistically significant improvement in resilience. → Venegas Carolina Lavin 2019

Review synthesis of two pilot RCTs: Mache et al. 2016 (psychosocial skills training with cognitive behavioural and solution-focused counselling) and Sood et al. 2011 (SMART program with wait-list control). Both "reported significant improvement in resilience"; no effect sizes printed.
"Two pilot RCTs [15,37] reported our primary outcome measure of resilience measured by validated resilience scales (Tables 1 and 2). Both pilot trials [15,37] reported significant improvement in resilience."
