surveying-prior-work
From the author
Use after framing a question and before designing an analysis, or when choosing a method, judging whether a result is novel, or needing a prior effect size for a power calculation

- framing-research-questionsK-Dense-AI/science-superpowersYou MUST use this before any data analysis or investigation - before exploring a dataset, loading or profiling data, running a model, computing a statistic, or testing an idea, and before any outcome data is touchedScience★ 364
- verifying-results-before-claimingK-Dense-AI/science-superpowersUse when about to claim a result, effect, significance, or that an analysis reproduces, before reporting or writing it up - requires running the analysis fresh and reading the actual output first; evidence before claims alwaysWriting★ 364

- experimental-designK-Dense-AI/scientific-agent-skillsDesigns experiments and studies BEFORE data is collected — choosing a design, randomizing, blocking, and laying out treatment combinations so results are interpretable. Use whenever someone is planning a study, asks how to assign subjects/samples to groups, mentions randomization, blocking, stratification, controls, factorial or fractional-factorial designs, design of experiments (DOE), screening many factors, response-surface optimization, crossover or repeated-measures or split-plot designs, cluster/group randomization, Latin squares, plate layouts, batch/run-order effects, replication vs. pseudoreplication, or sequential/adaptive/group-sequential designs. Trigger even for informal phrasings like "how should I set up this experiment", "how do I avoid confounding", "what's the best way to test these 6 factors", or "assign these mice to conditions". For computing the sample size or power once the design is chosen, use statistical-power; for analyzing data already collected, use statistical-analysis.Design★ 55.2K
