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? Skill retention after technical training tends to decline over time, with variation across studies. → Nielsen Martine Siw 2025

q2 · i? · review · r3
The review's discussion summary table concludes that "Skill retention after technical training tends to decline over time", with just-in-time training showing potential to counteract this loss.
"Skill retention after technical training tends to decline over time, but just-in-time training shows potential in preventing this loss by refreshing skills just before they are needed in practise."
