Bias Assessor

Enriches the extraction table with lightweight risk-of-bias fields for evidence-review.

Input

  • papers/extraction_table.csv

Output

  • updated papers/extraction_table.csv

Contract

The table should expose stable RoB columns:

  • rob_selection
  • rob_measurement
  • rob_confounding
  • rob_reporting
  • rob_overall
  • rob_notes

Allowed values are fixed:

  • low
  • unclear
  • high

Script boundary

scripts/run.py should:

  • add missing RoB columns
  • assign a conservative overall score
  • keep notes brief

Acceptance

  • RoB columns exist
  • all included rows have values
  • values stay within the fixed scale

Non-goals

  • deep methodological critique
  • rewriting extraction contents
