How the research stays rigorous
- Objectives give the analysis a clear purpose. Findings answer the questions the study set out to investigate.
- Adaptive follow-ups add depth. Interpretations take account of whether an idea emerged spontaneously, through a follow-up or from a presented choice.
- Cohorts make comparisons explicit. Counts and differences are read with their filters and denominator.
- Citations keep claims verifiable. Reviewers can move from a conclusion or quote to the answers behind it.
- Counterexamples set the boundary. Disagreement and minority views help define where a pattern applies and where it does not.
