ROBIS 4-Domain Audit¶

Domain 1: Eligibility Criteria¶

Rating: Low risk

Criterion	Assessment
Evidence types defined before searching	Yes — sought primary paper and secondary academic summaries
Criteria remained stable	Yes — did not shift criteria after seeing results

Notes: Eligibility was straightforward: academic databases, paper summaries, and secondary analyses of the O'Boyle and Aguinis (2012) paper.

Domain 2: Search Comprehensiveness¶

Rating: Some concerns

Criterion	Assessment
Multiple search strategies used	Yes — searched multiple academic databases and secondary sources
Searches designed to test each hypothesis	Partially — searched for output concentration figures but could not access full paper text
All results dispositioned	Yes — all search results accounted for
Source diversity achieved	Limited — all sources reference the same primary paper

Notes: The inability to access the full paper text via PDF extraction is a limitation. Multiple attempts to fetch the paper PDF failed to produce readable text. This limits confidence in the output concentration figures.

Domain 3: Evaluation Consistency¶

Rating: Low risk

Criterion	Assessment
All sources scored using same framework	Yes
Evidence typed consistently	Yes
ACH matrix applied	Yes
Diagnosticity analysis performed	Yes

Notes: Standard framework applied consistently.

Domain 4: Synthesis Fairness¶

Rating: Low risk

Criterion	Assessment
All hypotheses given fair hearing	Yes — H2 emerged from evidence, not predetermined
Contradictory evidence surfaced	Yes — absence of output percentages in secondary sources was surfaced
Confidence calibrated to evidence	Yes — downgraded from "Almost certain" to "Likely" due to unverified percentages
Gaps acknowledged	Yes — full paper access identified as primary gap

Notes: The distinction between H1 and H2 is subtle and fair to the claim.

Overall Assessment¶

Overall risk of bias: Low risk

The research process was thorough for the core study parameters but limited by inability to access the full paper text for the output concentration figures. This limitation is transparently reported.

Researcher Bias Check¶

Confirmation bias risk: Low. The claim was partially supported and partially flagged as unverifiable, rather than simply confirmed.
Anchoring bias risk: Low. The specific numbers in the claim were tested rather than assumed.
