# Illustrative output: evidence alignment

**Status:** Preliminary matrix. **Intake:** Uploaded fictional summary. Access and sampling are unconfirmed.

| Evaluation question | Evidence needed | Population/unit | Source | Method | Feasibility and limits | Evidence ID |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| What factors supported or constrained practice use in 2025? | Reported practice use and participant explanations | Adults attending at least one training | 2025 survey (known; sampling details absent) | Review survey items and analyze responses; consider follow-up interviews if access is confirmed | Survey can describe respondents. Representativeness is unknown; interviews require access and resources not supplied. | `input.md#Question`; `input.md#Known sources` |

## Facts, assumptions, and recommendations
- **Fact:** A 2025 survey and attendance sheets exist.
- **Unknown:** Sampling, response rate, respondent access, travel resources.
- **Proposed recommendation:** Verify survey coverage before generalizing to all trainees. Add interviews only if the decision requires explanations and resources permit.

## Decisions needed
- Confirm sample frame, respondent access, and intended geographic comparisons.
- Confirm whether the task is descriptive or intended to support a causal claim. Current inputs do not support causal attribution.
