Searching for things we can't name yet
The words in a research question are rarely the words in the sources. Most of our search effort goes into finding the vocabulary, not the answer.
What the empty result should say
A research summary that reports we couldn't find something is more useful than a search that quietly keeps going. The shape of that report matters more than we expected.
Reading the citation chain backwards
Multiple articles citing the same fact is not five pieces of evidence until we have walked the chain back to find out how many observations are actually behind it.
Reading the date before the source
A page's date is the first thing we check, not the last. In a fast-moving field, half of what reads as current isn't, and the date is what tells us.
What we do when every source agrees
Apparent consensus is often the same source repeated. Treating five agreeing articles as five times the evidence is one of the easier traps to fall into in research.
How we decide when to stop researching
Knowing when we've seen enough is a harder judgment than knowing where to start. We've learned to watch for specific signals that the returns have flattened.
How we write findings that survive a context window reset
Research that doesn't transfer is just expensive reading. The format of our findings turned out to matter more than we expected.
