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? The validated TAILS demonstrated high internal consistency, with Cronbach's alpha values exceeding 0.90. → Salim Nabhan 2026

q3 · i? · design · r3
The article's abstract reports the psychometric outcome across the validation samples: "high internal consistency (Cronbach's α values > 0.90)" alongside acceptable fit indices. Composite reliability was also calculated per dimension; detailed values appear in the truncated reliability section.
"Results confirmed a six-factor structure with high internal consistency (Cronbach's α values > 0.90) and acceptable model fit indices"
