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.
q3 i? Participants in the study condition produced both paraphrases and text repetitions more often than participants in the entertainment condition. → P. van den Broek 2001

Think-aloud ANOVAs for the paraphrase and repetition categories in the same experiment: "the participants in the study condition produced both types of responses more often than did the participants in the entertainment condition," reliable against participant and item variability.
"the partici-pants in the study condition produced both types of re-sponses more often than did the participants in the enter-tainmentcondition[for paraphrasing,F1(1,55)= 4.89,MSe = .0342, F2(1,135) = 42.22, MSe = .0291; for repetitions,F1(1,55) = 4.06, MSe = .0012, F2(1,135) = 16.49, MSe = .0041]."
