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 test/study advantage was significant for LQ, SQ, LRP, and SRP scoring procedures. → Shana K. Carpenter and Harold Pashler 2007

q3 · i? · causal · r2
In the same 50-subject within-subjects map-learning experiment, blind-scored final drawings were analyzed under liberal quadrant, stringent quadrant, liberal relative position, and stringent relative position procedures. All four yielded significant main effects of test condition, with the F and p values as printed; means from Table 1 ranged from .61 to .74 for test/study versus .53 to .63 for study.
"there was a significant main effect of test condition according to LQ scoring [ F(1,46) 10.85, p .005, MSe .026], SQ scoring [F(1,46) 7.14, p .02, MSe .023], LRP scoring [F(1,46) 4.12, p .05, MSe .024], and SRP scoring [F(1,46) 4.82, p .05, MSe .022]."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Map drawing after 30 min is more accurate for maps learned through covert-retrieval tests than for maps learned through equal conventional study time — related
- Retrieval practice benefits extend to nonverbal visual materials, spatial map learning, and educational texts with different structures — a broader claim this one bears on
- The retrieval (TTST) advantage appeared at both short (5 min) and long (24 h) retention delays, with no reliable evidence that it differed between them — related
