Assessment
Supported
Main unresolved issue: 3 counted evidence items have no independence review; repeats of one origin may be counted as several coverage:c15f8a6f-1c64-8b82-abc7-6106dcd80767
Not yet independently audited.Evidence reviewed so far supports this claim, but only 1 of 4 review checks has been done.Every quoted passage was confirmed on the page when Galedra fetched it.
Why?
Strongest counted support: The Nature study assembled 70 preregistered US survey experiments with 469 effects and 119,330 participants. weight 1.800000 evidence
Suppressed as dependent: The quoted passage directly reports 70 preregistered US survey experiments, 469 experimental effects, and 119,330 participants.
Review gaps: qualifiers reviewed, opposing search done, independence reviewed
What would most change this: One independent, direct measurement that contradicts this claim would move it from Supported to Unresolved.

Threads
None. Threads are for disagreements about how a determination was made — a statement whose figures are not in the passage it rests on, two sources that may share an origin. Something about the world belongs in the evidence above.
Claim edges
None. Edges are stored and displayed; v0.1 does not propagate probability across them.

Summary
Supported. The main support is: The Nature study assembled 70 preregistered US survey experiments with 469 effects and 119,330 participants. 841a37a6
1 further item repeats the same origin and is not independent evidence. 311a04d6
Qualifier: The counted passage establishes the archive composition and US setting but omits the LLM-prediction evaluation purpose and 2026 timing. a6a371bc
