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? Included studies showed relationships between high post-TBL t-RAT scores and strong summative exam scores, and found i-RAT scores predict final examination performance, particularly among lower-performing students. → Ahmad-Naik Danish 2026

Ahmad-Naik Danish, Webb Alexandra, Namboothiri Vaishnavi Krishnan, Valter Krisztina. (2026). The practices and strategies for implementing team-based learning in pre-clinical medical education: a systematic review. BMC Medical Education. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12909-026-08713-x
q2 · i? · review · r2
The review attributes this finding to Carrasco et al. and Nayak et al. among the included studies; the review reports, citing these studies, that i-RAT scores predict final examination performance. No pooled effect size was computed.
"Similarly, Carrasco et al. [18, 52] and Nayak et al. [53] found that i-RAT scores predict final examination performance, particularly among lower-performing students."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Individual readiness assurance tests (i-RATs) in pre-clinical TBL are almost universally MCQ-based, mostly closed-book, typically 5 to 30 items lasting 10 to 30 minutes — related
- In both TBL formats, tRAT and iSAT scores significantly improve over preceding iRAT scores — related
- Students perform significantly higher on the team portion of the Readiness Assessment Test than on the individual portion in a TBL laboratory module — related
- Both course sections show the same team-over-individual RAT trend despite a significant difference in scores between the sections — related
- Team-based learning showed significantly higher performance than traditional learning in one included study — related
