Reports
Published findings, and the protocols behind them
Every report opens with its key chart and a one-paragraph finding, and links to the dataset, the method and the preregistration. Where an organisation we study has responded, the response is published unedited.
No protocols or reports have been published yet. A protocol is listed here once it has been submitted for registration, and its report follows when the work is complete.
Report page anatomy
01
Key chart first
The chart that carries the finding sits above the fold, with n, unit, method and date beneath it.
02
One paragraph
The finding in plain words, numbers before adjectives. No executive summary, no recommendations section unless a pathway exists.
03
Links out
PDF, dataset, method and preregistration, in that order, on every report.
04
Recommendations
Always after findings, never instead of them. Stated conditionally, naming the evidence each rests on. A report with no findings has no recommendations.
05
Right of reply
Where we studied a named organisation, its response is published here unedited, beside the finding and the recommendation rather than at the end.
