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? Wilcoxon signed-rank tests showed significant Pscore growth between tests 1–2 (z = −2.1976, p = 0.0278) and tests 2–3 (z = −3.5162, p = 0.00044) in the experiment group, but not in the control group for those intervals. → Damacharla 2018 q3 i? Both groups showed significant growth from test 1 to test 3 (control z = −2.1315, p = 0.03318; experiment z = −3.5162, p = 0.00044). → Damacharla 2018 (2)

q3 · i? · causal · r1

Within-group Wilcoxon signed-rank analyses of Pscores across the three iterations in the VBSA-trained group. The "experimental group between tests 1 and 2" and tests 2 and 3 both showed significant improvement; the control group's corresponding tests were not significant. No effect sizes are printed.

"The same test applied on the experimental group between tests 1 and 2 (z = −2.1976, p = 0.0278 for p < 0.05) and tests 2 and 3 (z = −3.5162, p = 0.00044 for p < 0.05) indicated a statistically significant difference in"

q3 · i? · causal · r1

Wilcoxon signed-rank comparison of control-group Pscores from test 1 to test 3 showed "statistically significant growth existed from test 1 to test 3" (z = −2.1315, p = 0.03318); no effect size is printed.

"Nevertheless, statistically significant growth existed from test 1 to test 3 (z = −2.1315, p = 0.03318 for p < 0.05)."
