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.
q4 i0 Students in TLTS schools performed 0.05 standard deviations higher in ELA than students in comparison schools after two years (p = 0.019). → Naihobe Gonzalez 2023

q4 · i0 · causal · r?
Randomized controlled trial of TLTS in two southeastern U.S. school districts examining two-year student achievement outcomes. The report states students in TLTS schools "performed 0.05 standard deviations higher in ELA than students in comparison schools (p-value = 0.019)" — a printed effect size of 0.05 SD, below d = 0.2.
"After two years of TLTS implementation, students in TLTS schools, on average, performed 0.05 standard deviations higher in ELA than students in comparison schools (p-value = 0.019)"
