q3 · i? · causal · r2

Multilevel logistic regression in the 4-year group RCT found "no signi ficant differences between SWPBIS and com- parison schools" for suspensions (AOR = 0.97, CI 0.69–1.36 in Table 6); equivalence was not tested.

"With regard to suspensions, there were no signi ficant differences between SWPBIS and com- parison schools and no signi ficant interactions (see Table 6)"
