Case 95 — Correlation in a small observational dataset · documentation exercise
Clarification for “Correlation in a small observational dataset”: the point beginning “Association does not identify direction or causation, and…” belongs to the question as written. It should not be read as a report that a new check, purchase or experiment has been completed. Review focus: documentation. Distinguish an original record from a proposed record format.

Case 95 — Correlation in a small observational dataset · documentation exercise
Method note for “Correlation in a small observational dataset”: use “Association does not identify direction or causation, and…” as a row heading in a proposed working record. Put the statement, its supporting source or measurement, and any unresolved detail in separate fields. This proposes a format; it supplies no additional evidence. Distinguish an original record from a proposed record format.

Case 95 — Correlation in a small observational dataset · documentation exercise
Limit of the answer in “Correlation in a small observational dataset”: “Association does not identify direction or causation, and…” is an excerpt from the discussion, not an independent verification. A reader needs the relevant original material before treating an interpretation as established. Review focus: documentation. Distinguish an original record from a proposed record format.

Case 95 — Correlation in a small observational dataset · documentation exercise
Correction note for “Correlation in a small observational dataset”: retain the wording beginning “Association does not identify direction or causation, and…” in the record. If later material changes it, add the date, the changed wording and the source for that change; do not invent a completed correction here. Distinguish an original record from a proposed record format.

Case 95 — Correlation in a small observational dataset · documentation exercise
Summary draft for “Correlation in a small observational dataset”: the answer addresses “Association does not identify direction or causation, and…”; the related point is “Report sample size, potential confounders…”. Keep both connected to the opening question, and mark any conclusion needing further records as unresolved. Review focus: documentation. Distinguish an original record from a proposed record format.

Case 95 — Correlation in a small observational dataset · documentation exercise
Reader check for “Correlation in a small observational dataset”: distinguish the discussion point “Association does not identify direction or causation, and…” from its proposed application. The thread offers a way to reason about the question, without adding a personal experience or a newly observed outcome. Review focus: documentation. Distinguish an original record from a proposed record format.

Case 96 — Units and scale: prevent a silent comparison error · documentation exercise
Two figures use different units and one axis is logarithmic. How should a comparison be documented?
Review focus: documentation. Distinguish an original record from a proposed record format. Use the original answer fragment “Do not compare apparent visual distances…” as the discussion anchor; no new event or result is supplied.
Exercise RESEARCH-25905/96: address this question within its stated limits.

Case 97 — Reading an abstract without skipping the methods · uncertainty exercise
A strong abstract conclusion is being discussed without the study methods. What should the reading note cover?
Review focus: uncertainty. Leave the unresolved part visible instead of supplying a result. Use the original answer fragment “Identify population, design, comparator, outcome…” as the discussion anchor; no new event or result is supplied.
