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? Projected assistance was preferred for drawing, where guidance must align visually with the work, while symbolic content can be read from a screen, making co-location a targeted rather than general-purpose replacement. → Gregorio Orlando 2026

Authors' interpretation (type e) in the Discussion: for drawing, every screen switch breaks the visual reference and forces mental re-alignment, whereas symbolic content can be held briefly in memory; hence "co-locating guidance matters most when the instructions and the task share a unified spatial frame". This is an interpretation of the study results, not a separately tested result.
"As a result, co-locating guidance matters most when the instructions and the task share a unified spatial frame. Our findings imply that robot-mediated projection is not a general-purpose replacement for screen-based assistance, but a targeted one."
