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? The comparability findings increase confidence in the quality of data gathered from remotely administered MAP Growth assessments in grades 3 and up. → Megan Kuhfeld 2020

The brief's concluding interpretation states that the combined reliability, engagement, and score-trend findings "increase confidence" in remotely administered MAP Growth data for grades 3 and up.
"Taken together, these findings increase confidence in the quality of data gathered from remotely administered MAP Growth assessments in grades 3 and up."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- The dashboard primarily focuses on grades 3 through 8 because remote and in-person MAP Growth results are largely comparable for grades 3 and up — related
- Fall 2020 MAP Growth tests showed high levels of marginal reliability across all grades in both remote and in-person administration — related
- Test engagement was high across all grades on fall 2020 MAP Growth tests in both administration modes — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
- Remote and in-person MAP Growth test scores showed consistent trends for students in grades 3-8 in fall 2020 — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
- Remote and in-person fall 2020 MAP Growth tests show comparable psychometric characteristics and indicators of test quality — a broader claim this one bears on
- Marginal reliabilities of MAP Growth winter scores are comparable across engines and all in the 0.90s, with CBE showing slightly higher precision (lower SEM) — related
- Student test-taking disengagement on remotely administered adaptive interim assessments differs from disengagement on the same assessment administered in school — related
