Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • There are greater concentrations in a smaller number of mixed offenders and co-offenders than among solo offenders.

    “Based on analyses of the 'felonious few' (Sherman, 2019; see also Sherman, 2007 ) - offenders responsible for a disproportionate ratio of crime counts or crime harm out of all offenders in the dataset - we find greater concentrations in a smaller number of mixed offenders and co-offenders than among solo offenders.”

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.
