Abstract

A research project documenting field research carried out in Iraq, Nigeria, and Uganda, showing that while humanitarian agencies strive to provide safe sanitation facilities, women in particular have many safety concerns when using communal latrines after dark. Discusses whether lighting in or around facilities reduces the risk of gender-based violence.

  • It may state two separate claims as one. 106
  • Probably not a substantial claim. 71
  • The quote only partly states this claim. 2
140 of 140
  • The paper relies on this without support.

    Perceptions of risk and fear of gender-based violence are a valid proxy for the actual risk of gender-based violence in this setting.

    “Therefore this research, in line with best practices and ethical standards, is not based on formally reported incidents of GBV but on perceptions of risk and fear of GBV.”
    “These were used as indicators to measure 'fear of GBV'.”

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.

A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-11, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).

A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-11 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).

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.
