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? Zoo U subscales were related in a number of cases, and the authors interpret these associations as expected given overlap of social skills competencies in children's real-world behaviors. → Melissa E. DeRosier 2012

q3 · i? · design · r3
Intercorrelation analysis of Zoo U subscales (Table 3) to check whether composite indices discriminated among targeted skills. The article states the associations are "expected given the overlap of social skills competencies in children’s real world behaviors"; correlations are printed in Table 3.
"Although Zoo U subscales are related in a number of cases, the composition of those associations is expected given the overlap of social skills competencies in children’s real world behaviors"
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Students rated Zoo U highly for engagement and likeability, with every usability area rated at least 3.8 on a four-point scale
- Perception measures of social distance, treatment amenability, perceived recidivism, and sentencing severity are mostly significantly intercorrelated — related
- Facet difficulty and intercorrelation patterns: analyzing givens was easiest, evaluating progress hardest, and planning correlated 0.98 with the overall estimate — related
