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? Spearman's rank correlation of ranked retention scores two weeks after treatment showed a significant difference between discussion and lecture groups (r cal = 0.9786 > 0.2353 at P < 0.05). → Efe M.Omwirhiren 2015

Enhancing Academic Achievement And Retention In Senior Secondary School Chemistry Through Discussion And Lecture Methods: A Case Study Of Some Selected Secondary Schools In Gboko, Benue State, Nigeria.

q2 · i? · causal · r1

The CAT was rearranged and reshuffled and administered as a Chemistry Retention Test two weeks after the main treatment to 59 students per group; mean scores were ranked and analyzed through Spearman's rank correlation coefficient.

"Result in table 6 shows that r cal > r crit., i.e. 0.9786 is greater than 0.2353. The null hypothesis 3 is rejected and so there is significant difference in the mean retention scores between students taught using lecture and discussion methods."
