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? In schizophrenia, multisensory reaction-time benefits are substantially reduced relative to controls, and audiovisual temporal acuity differences predict hallucination severity. → Wallace 2020

q2 · i? · review · r2
The review reports, citing Williams et al., that control participants showed significant reaction-time speeding under multisensory conditions while these benefits were substantially reduced in schizophrenia; citing Stevenson et al., temporal acuity differences predicted hallucination severity.
"Though control participants show a significant speeding under multisensory conditions, such benefits were found to be substantially reduced in the SZ population (Williams et al.2010)"
