PSLE Science Reality Lab Vol No.444 | “Registered Report: Accepted in Principle” — Were the Results Already Confirmed?
A massive Primary 5/6 PSLE Science Reality Lab guide to Registered Reports and in-principle acceptance: learn why Stage 1 approval reviews the research plan before the main outcomes are known and does not confirm the later result.
-
PSLE Science Reality Lab Vol No.443 | “Three Laboratories Agree” — Does Agreement Prove the Result Is Accurate?
A massive Primary 5/6 PSLE Science Reality Lab guide to interlaboratory comparisons: learn why several laboratories can agree closely without automatically proving accuracy, and how shared bias, reference values and sample integrity change the conclusion.
-
PSLE Science Reality Lab Vol No.442 | “Expression of Concern” — Has the Study Already Been Retracted?
A massive Primary 5/6 PSLE Science Reality Lab guide to Expressions of Concern: learn why a serious journal warning is not automatically a retraction, proof of falsehood or proof of the opposite claim.
-
PSLE Science Reality Lab Vol No.441 | “Open Access Article” — Does That Mean the Research Data Are Open Too?
A massive Primary 5/6 PSLE Science Reality Lab guide to Open Access labels: learn why free access to a scientific article does not automatically mean its underlying research data, code or complete evidence record are open.
-
PSLE Science Reality Lab Vol No.440 | “Dataset Version 4.0” — Is It Four Times More Accurate Than Version 1.0?
A massive Primary 5/6 PSLE Science Reality Lab guide to dataset version labels: learn why Version 4.0 identifies a release in a revision history rather than meaning four times the accuracy of Version 1.0.
-
PSLE Science Reality Lab Vol No.439 | “This Paper Has a DOI” — Does That Mean It Was Peer Reviewed?
A massive Primary 5/6 PSLE Science Reality Lab guide to DOI labels: learn why a Digital Object Identifier persistently identifies a research object without automatically proving peer review, evidence quality or scientific correctness.
