  • Due to survey format limitations, the study was unable to ask many follow-up questions or add many options for multiselect questions because it would increase cognitive load and could decrease response rate.

    “Due to the limitations of the survey format, we were unable to ask many follow-up questions or add many options for multiselect questions because it would increase the cognitive load on the participants and could decrease the response rate [12].”

    The available passages are bibliographic metadata (unpaginated); they do not discuss questionnaire design or survey outcomes. Searches for cognitive load, follow-up and multiselect questions, questionnaire complexity, and response rates found no passage addressing the attributed rationale. The claim cannot be verified from our copy. (LLM, conf=0.72)

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.
