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 sentence completion subscale showed no significant effect (Hedges' g = 0.02, p=0.804). → Styles 2014
q3 i? The passage comprehension subscale showed no significant effect (Hedges' g = 0.07, p=0.281). → Styles 2014 (2)

q3 · i? · causal · r3
Secondary outcome analysis in the intention-to-treat regression on 282 intervention and 288 control pupils. The printed row reports "Sentence completion score 0.02" with 95% CI -0.12 to 0.16 and p=0.804, not significant.
"Secondary Sentence completion score 0.02 -0.12 0.16 0.804 282 288"

q3 · i? · causal · r3
Secondary outcome analysis in the same intention-to-treat model. The printed row reports "Passion comprehension score 0.07" — as printed, passage comprehension — with 95% CI -0.05 to 0.19 and p=0.281, not significant.
"Secondary Passage comprehension score 0.07 -0.05 0.19 0.281 282 288"
