“Aucejo and Romano (2016) estimate that a day absent may reduce math test scores by .0055 SD’s and reading by .0029 SD’s; this implies that 0.19 fewer days missed could lead to increases of .001045 SD’s in math and .000551 SD’s in reading.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
