Statistics

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

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?

  • Office studies in adults show that comfort temperature decreased with increasing BMI.

    “Similar results were obtained by office studies in adults, showing that comfort temperature decreased with increasing BMI [78–80].”
  • The strong overlap between PPS of Rupp et al. and pdfTNZ further suggests the applicability of the TNZ model for aspects related to thermal comfort.

    “In addition, the strong overlap between PPS of Rupp et al. and pdfTNZ further suggests the applicability of the TNZ model for aspects related to thermal comfort.”
  • The pdfTNZ aligns beneath or close to the peaks of the PPS curves from the full dataset of Rupp et al. [80].

    “As seen in Figure 4, the pdfTNZ aligns beneath or close to the peaks of the PPS curves from the full dataset of Rupp et al. [80].”
  • The pdfTNZ for males is shifted to the cold side compared to that for females in a similar way like the PPS curve shifts, and the pdfTNZ for males has a wider plateau while the shaded area of 80%-acceptance from Rupp et al. is also wider for males.

    “For instance, the pdfTNZ for males is shifted to the cold side compared to that for females in a similar way like the PPS curve shifts and the pdfTNZ for males has a wider plateau while the shaded area of 80%-acceptance from Rupp et al. is also wider for males.”

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.
