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? Student teachers instructed in fraction-understanding-supportive ways in only 21.2% of episodes versus 52.8% for experienced teachers, a significant difference. → Maikki Pouta 2020

Video-based coding of instruction in fraction-related episodes as supportive or non-supportive of fraction understanding. The article reports the significant group difference with printed percentages; no effect size is printed.
"Student teachers attended to episodes classified as supportive only in 21.2 % of episodes, whereas experienced teachers attended to episodes classified as supportive in 52.8 % of episodes. The difference was significant, χ2 (1, N =6 9 )=7 . 3 0 6 , p < 0.01."
