Write Evidence-Grounded Results
Write from claims to evidence. Preserve the boundary between what was observed, computed, interpreted, and hypothesized.
Workflow
- Inventory the supplied Evidence Bundle, figures, tables, methods, and references. List missing evidence before drafting.
- Create a claim ledger with one row per proposed sentence: claim type, evidence references, uncertainty, caveats, and citation need.
- Draft Results in the order that best answers the research question. Lead with measurements and effect sizes, not adjectives.
- Reserve mechanisms, implications, and alternative explanations for Discussion unless the requested venue combines sections.
- Use calibrated language from references/claim-language.md.
- Mark unresolved placeholders explicitly. Never invent sample counts, instrument settings, statistics, citations, or numerical values.
- Return the prose together with the claim ledger so a reviewer can trace each substantive statement.
Output contract
- prose appropriate to the requested section and venue;
- claim ledger mapping statements to evidence node IDs;
- missing-information and citation-needed list;
- limitations and plausible alternative explanations;
- no unsupported claim presented as established fact.
Guardrails
- Use causal language only when design and analysis support causality.
- Do not turn agreement with a reference into proof of identity.
- Do not equate absence of a detected signal with absence of the phenomenon.
- Preserve meaningful uncertainty and conflicting evidence.
- Ask for expert approval before submission-ready scientific or clinical claims.
