Emotions are central to rituals from the sociological perspective.
“Emotions are central to rituals from this perspective, in contrast to everyday usage of the term to refer to repetitive, mechanical, empty, and meaningless behavior.”

“In Chinese society, li encompasses such rites and ceremonies but also includes practices that were very much part of everyday life-such as dress codes and etiquette for different occasions-bringing li closer to the conception of ritual in sociological studies”

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.
