Attention check items were used to screen out inattentive participants to improve data quality, as recommended by Maniaci and Rogge (2014).
“As online questionnaires are especially vulnerable to inattentive responding (which could be increased even further by the monetary compensation), we used attention check items, as recommended by Maniaci and Rogge (2014). We used a total of 4 items throughout the questionnaire to screen out inattentive participants to improve data quality”

Data quality was ensured by excluding inattentive or careless responses using a Directed Question Scale attention check and extreme response duration criteria.
“To ensure data quality, responses from inattentive or careless individuals were excluded from the analysis through multiple criteria.”

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.
