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.
q2 i? Overall character scores were 74.97 for RME versus 67.84 for conventional education (t-test sig. 0.000), and differences by early math skill level were also significant (ANOVA sig. 0.007). → Palinussa 2013

q2 · i? · causal · r1
Character was measured with a perception scale in the same quasi-experiment (Table 6). Table 7 reports the t-test significance as 0.000 for learning group and One-Way ANOVA sig. 0.007 for early math skills. RME character means rose from 72.96 (low early math skills) to 84.52 (high).
"t -test analysis produces the students' character who have been using RME (74.97 out of 100) is better than the students' character who have been using Conventional Mathematics Education (67.84). Both characters are quite good"
