bias-assessor

What problem does it solve?

This Skill standardizes the assessment of bias and risk-of-bias in research studies, ensuring consistency and auditability in systematic reviews before synthesis.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Standardized RoB Fields: Adds and populates essential risk-of-bias columns (e.g., rob_selection, rob_measurement, rob_confounding, rob_reporting, rob_overall, rob_notes).
• Consistent Rating Scale: Utilizes a simple, auditable low | unclear | high scale for each domain.
• Use Case: After extracting data for a systematic review into papers/extraction_table.csv, this Skill can be used to systematically assess the quality of each included study's methodology, preparing the data for meta-analysis or narrative synthesis.
