Diagnosticity Analysis

Most Diagnostic Evidence

Evidence Why Diagnostic
SRC02-E01 Most explicit gap documentation — and proposed "solution" is abandonment, not framework development. Discriminates between H1 (solution proposed = framework) and H2 (solution proposed = abandonment)
SRC04-E01 Practitioner-level evidence of the gap — strongly eliminates H3 and discriminates between H1 and H2 (practitioners do not have solutions, just questions)

Least Diagnostic Evidence

Evidence Why Non-Diagnostic
SRC05-E01 Documents gap deepening but does not strongly discriminate between H1 and H2 — could be read as urgency for solutions

Outcome

Hypothesis supported: H2 — Gap documented, no GRADE-like solution proposed. Uniform support across all evidence.

Hypotheses eliminated: H1 — No evidence of framework solution proposals. H3 — Five independent papers explicitly document the gap.

Hypotheses inconclusive: None.
