Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
In the citing paper
“This approach cannot work, because in general, the accuracy of information X must depend on the hypothesis under consideration”
From Explicit Bayesian Analysis for Process Tracing: Guidelines, Opportunities, and Caveats (2017) · cites this paper as Beach and Pedersen (2013:126-29)
In the citing paper
“It is widely agreed that the core of Process-tracing (PT) as a distinct case study methodology is that it involves tracing causal mechanisms that link causes (X) with their effects (i.e. outcomes) (Y)”
From It's all about mechanisms – what process-tracing case studies should be tracing (2016) · cites this paper as Beach and Pedersen, 2013

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.
