Prior PDF · normalnormal distribution. normal prior. 95% CI ≈ [0.325, 0.623]; mean ≈ 0.474.0.1710.3220.4740.6260.778x0density

mean ≈ 0.474 · 95% CI ≈ [0.325, 0.623]

Intervals

Confidence interval (95%) — uncertainty about the mean ρ
[0.31, 0.55]
Credibility interval (95%) — distribution of the true effect across settings (the Bayesian prior)
[0.38, 0.50]
I² (heterogeneity) — share of total variance from between-study differences
9% — studies largely agree

The true effect is ~constant across settings — it generalizes.

SD_ρ≈0 — true effect is ~constant across settings; generalizes (observed-score scale until artifact correction, PRN-058)

Evidence provenance

published ρ=0.44 (k=3, replication: meta-analytic); no primary-deployment evidence yet

No primary-deployment evidence yet — this prior rests on published literature alone. As anonymized, aggregated effect sizes from real deployments are contributed, they appear here as a distinct, publication-bias-free source, fused with the literature into a posterior estimate.
