Several approaches were used to minimize measurement error: a pilot test of the critical feedback survey to assess clarity of directions, question wording, and rating procedure; a systematic approach for expert panel members to apply ratings; and use of expert panel members with diverse backgrounds.
“Several approaches were used to minimize measurement error in this study. The first was the use of a pilot test of the critical feedback survey to assess the clarity of directions, question wording, and rating procedure, among other elements (Fink,2003). The use of a systematic approach for the expert panel members to apply the ratings also contributed towards minimizing measurement error.”

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.
