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? JME averaged over two minutes after feedback was significantly higher than JME averaged over the two minutes before feedback. → Anahita Golrang 2026

q3 · i? · causal · r2
Process-level analysis addressing RQ2: JME aggregated two minutes before versus two minutes after feedback showed a significant increase (t[df = 25] = 19.33, p<.0001) in the same 26-dyad within-subjects study. No effect size printed.
"Similarly a test between the JME values before (average for the two minutes before) and after (averaged for two minutes after) the feedback was provided showed a significant increase in the JME of the dyads (t[df = 25] = 19.33, p<.0001, figure 4b)."
