The Boy Who Saw His Grandfather

Why testimony and controlled research answer different questions
Testimony can document that a person had an experience and reveal its personal consequences. Controlled research can estimate patterns, compare groups, and test limited hypotheses. Neither form should be presented as though it performs the other function.
When the two are placed together, keep their labels visible. A moving account can motivate a research question, while research can supply context, but the emotional strength of the story does not increase the study quality.
Five checkpoints for this route
- 1.Were witnesses interviewed independently rather than as a group?
- 2.Is a personal belief clearly labeled instead of presented as medical consensus?
- 3.Could a reader reproduce the article’s source trail without guessing?
- 4.Are publication date, authorship, and editorial review status visible?
- 5.Are alternative explanations described fairly and specifically?
