- Fact / stateFind out what is actually true, present, absent, or currently configured right now.
- Experience / perspectiveFind out what a person is actually experiencing, noticing, or interpreting, rather than what you assume they are.
- Amount / trendFind out how much, how often, how fast, and in what direction something is moving.
- Distribution / base rateFind out how the outcome is spread across cases and what usually happens before judging any single case.
- Difference / associationFind out what actually differs or moves together with the outcome you care about.
- Causal effectFind out whether changing this factor actually changes the outcome, not just whether they appear together.
- MechanismFind out through what sequence of steps or bottleneck the outcome actually arises.
- Reliability / sourceFind out whether this source, measure, or account can be trusted for this specific decision.
- PredictionFind out whether your explanation can call a future or unseen outcome before it happens.
- Genuine improvementFind out whether the thing you actually value improved, not just a proxy score or a temporary appearance.
- Boundary / transferFind out where the finding works, where it fails, and where it stops being safe to apply.
