Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • All analyses were weighted according to age, race/ethnicity, education, and state in the US population to account for unequal sampling.

    “All analyses were weighted according to age, race/ethnicity, education, and state in the US population to account for unequal sampling [33].”

    From Difference in predictors and barriers to arts and cultural engagement with age in the United States: A cross-sectional analysis using the Health and Retirement Study (2021) · cites this paper as [33]

    The Overview of Sample Design and Sample Weights (page not specified) says HRS weights account for unequal selection probabilities and describes post-stratification by age and race/ethnicity. It does not identify education or state as weighting factors; it instead mentions gender and geographic adjustment by primary sampling unit. The source also cannot establish that the citing authors weighted all their analyses. (LLM, conf=0.88)

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.
