What frameworks does this skill use for assessment?

The skill utilizes the GRADE (Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluations) and Cochrane Risk of Bias (ROB) frameworks to evaluate evidence quality.

Is this skill useful for academic peer review?

Absolutely. It provides a structured framework to critique research designs, measurement quality, and the logical consistency of conclusions.

Does it support visual data representation?

While the core skill focuses on analysis, it is designed to work with the scientific-schematics tool to generate flowcharts and bias assessment diagrams.

Can this skill help identify p-hacking or statistical errors?

Yes, it evaluates p-value interpretation, sample size adequacy, multiple comparison corrections, and potential p-hacking or selective reporting.
