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? A significant advantage occurred for the verbal + visual condition for children without MD when WMC was set to a high level. → Swanson 2013

Wave 4 intent-to-treat analysis; the article reports "a significant advantage occurred for the verbal + visual condition for children without MD" at high WMC (sentence continues past truncation point).
"In addition, a significant advantage occurred for the verbal + visual condition for children without MD when"
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Children without math difficulties outperformed children with math difficulties in word problem solving overall, but gaps narrowed on some conditions at Wave 2 — related
- At high pretest WMC, the visual-only condition outperformed verbal-only, verbal+visual, and control on solution accuracy — a broader claim this one bears on
- Strategy training outcomes on word problem accuracy interact with working memory capacity, favoring children with higher WMC — related
