How are reports selected for inclusion in SafetyLit Update? The criteria for selecting reports for inclusion are simple. If the answer to any of the following questions is "yes", then the report is likely to be included: 1. Do the SafetyLit reviewers find the report interesting? 2. Are SafetyLit readers likely to hear of the report from a colleague? 3. Are SafetyLit readers likely to be questioned about the report from a member of the population they serve? 4. Does the report contain findings that are likely to be used by an adversary to oppose the actions or recommendations of a SafetyLit reader? 5. Has there been a recent news item that refers to the report? Thus, reports summarized in each SafetyLit Update are NOT screened for quality. Even when we believe that there are methodological errors that effect the research findings or when we disagree with the implications, we attempt to provide an objective summary of the report. Material in the 'comments' section of each report's summary is provided by the author(s) of the report -- not by SafetyLit.
