Could someone repeat the AI step in your study?

List each AI tool the study used, what it did and what you kept. The checklist shows what another researcher would still be missing and drafts the methods paragraph from your answers.

promptoutputversion 4Sep 8 to 19save the prompt, the output and the date
Drawn for this page. Another researcher can repeat an AI-assisted step only with the exact prompt, the raw output, the tool version and the dates.

How to use it

  1. Fill it in while the study is running, not at the end: dates and versions are hard to recover.
  2. Save the raw output before anyone edits it.
  3. Pick the sample to check before you look at the results.
  4. Edit the methods paragraph; it is a starting point, not finished text.
  5. Keep the exported file with the study data.

What the checklist covers

Why versions and dates

The same prompt can give different output on a different day: web tools update their models without a new name. A date range is often the only reliable version record.

Agreement, honestly

The checklist works out simple percent agreement on the sample a person checked. It does not correct for agreement by chance, so report a chance-corrected figure such as Cohen’s kappa as well.

What it is not

The checklist does not judge whether AI use was right for the study. It records what was done so others can follow it and decide.
