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? K-means cluster analysis of approaches to learning identified three profiles: organized students applying a deep approach (n = 230), unorganized students applying a deep approach (n = 113), and a dissonant profile scoring high on all approaches (n = 119). → Tuononen 2023

q2 · i? · associational · r2

K-means cluster analysis on the three approaches-to-learning scales in the survey of 462 students. Table 3 prints cluster sizes of 230, 113 and 119; the third, the Dissonant profile, "comprised students who scored high on all approaches".

"The first, Organized students applying a deep approach, included students who scored the highest on the deep approach and organized studying and lowest on the unreflective approach. The second profile, Unorganized students applying a deep approach, included students who scored high on deep approach but the lowest on organized studying."
