tit_i is a part of this expression. Its role is fixed by the surrounding article and by the operations shown in the formula.

Where the article explains it

where tit_i is time-in-force for approach i .

The passage around this formula

where tit_i is time-in-force for approach i . When tit_i differs by an order of magnitude or more across the set compared, as it does here, no amount of careful measurement of coverage or enforcement intensity fixes the fact that the outcome variable has not had time to be generated for every entrant. This is why no figure in this article, or elsewhere in this publication, ranks these regimes by effectiveness.
