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 · i3 · causal · r2
Quasi-experimental multi-site study comparing 172 Triple-Focus children with 47 controls; the reported contrast shows intervention children "out-performed control children at posttest on all 14 outcomes" with d = .80 on standardized and 1.69 on experimental measures.
"Intervention children out-performed control children at posttest on all 14 outcomes, with average effect sizes (Cohen’s d) on standardized measures of .80 and on experimental measures of 1.69."
