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? The treatment had a moderate, positive effect at low treatment duration (ES = 0.57) and a large, positive effect at high duration (ES = 1.48), and the difference between the two subcategories was statistically significant (Q = 3.89, p < 0.05). → Vahideh Sadat Vahedi 2014

Moderator analysis comparing high- and low-intensity treatment duration subgroups in the meta-analysis. Both subgroup effects were statistically significant, and the between-subgroup Q-test was significant. The article suggests more exposure to glosses can lead to better learning outcomes.
"Based on Table 2, the test of heterogeneity did show a statistically significant difference between the effect sizes of two treatment duration subcategories (Q= 3.89, p<0.05), suggesting that more technology use can probably lead to better outcomes."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Teacher-supported learning scaffolds show the largest effect (ES = 0.92), and longer intervention durations yield larger effects — related
- Scaffold effects peak at 2–4 weeks of treatment and decrease dramatically for treatments lasting 9–24 weeks — reports the opposite
- Intervention duration significantly moderates Gen-AI's effect on HOT, with the strongest effects at 8–16 weeks (ES = 0.759) and weaker effects for shorter (0.494) and longer (0.372) interventions — related
- Interventions longer than one month showed the largest effect size for robot-assisted STEM learning, though duration was not a significant moderator overall — related
- Research design does not significantly moderate the gloss effect: randomized (ES = 1.16) versus matched (ES = 0.71) studies do not differ significantly — related
- Sample size does not significantly moderate the gloss effect: large studies (ES = 0.88) versus small studies (ES = 0.72) do not differ significantly — related
