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.
q2 i? Across five semesters, 96 withdrawn students averaged an H-score of 9.9 versus 3.9 among 2,974 completers, a difference the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test found significant. → David Racovan 2026
Evidence¶
David Racovan 2026¶
David Racovan, Ajay Rawat, Christopher K. May, Jeffrey A. Turkstra. (2026). Argus: Academic Integrity in the Era of Generative AI. https://arxiv.org/abs/2609.36073 doi:10.48550/arxiv.2609.36073
q2 · i? · design · r2
Observational comparison of students who attended Midterm 1 but neither later exam against completers, excluding Spring 2020; withdrawn students' mean H-score was 9.9 versus 3.9, and in Spring 2026 19.5 versus 11.4. Only the D statistic is printed, so no effect size is coded.
"A two-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test indicates that the two groups are drawn from significantly different distributions (𝐷= 0.362,𝑝< 0.001)."
