Case 97 — Reference management: distinguish primary and secondary sources · uncertainty exercise
Method note for “Reference management: distinguish primary and secondary sources”: use “Locate the primary study and confirm that it…” 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. Leave the unresolved part visible instead of supplying a result.
