Mark the kind of claim a run can support

Records, on a run, what its results may be used to argue. The three types are "instrument_pilot" (the run characterizes an instrument, not a population), "theory_probe" (it explores a mechanism or hypothesis), and "coding" (it annotates data, with reliability reported).

Usage

mark_claim_type(run, type = c("instrument_pilot", "theory_probe", "coding"))

Arguments

run

An object accepted by as_agent_run().

type

One of "instrument_pilot", "theory_probe", or "coding".

Value

The run (an agent_run), invisibly, with the claim type recorded.

Details

The label flows into report(): prose that would overstate the claim is scoped or refused. None of these types turns model output into a population estimate.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
run <- as_agent_run(my_deliberation)
run <- mark_claim_type(run, "theory_probe")
report(run)   # prose is scoped to a theory probe, not a population claim
} # }
