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? Tier status changed significantly by end of Year Two (χ² = 26.57, df = 4, p < 0.001), with Tier 3 percentages lower than at end of Year One for both groups. → Elizabeth R. Kazakoff 2018

Chi-square analysis of aimsweb tier status for the 130 Year Two students (71 ELs, 59 non-ELs). Tier 3 percentages fell from 15% ELs / 19% non-ELs at end of Year One to "11% ELs, 7% non-ELs" at end of Year Two; no significant group difference at end of Year Two.

"There were, however, significant changes in tier status by the end of the Year Two study ( v2 = 26.57, df = 4, p \ 0.001). Nearly half of ELs and over half of non-ELs ended the Year Two study in Tier 1."
