Description
Summarize known caregiver response-mode pairs and changes.
Developmental research records may encode task eligibility, known responses, observer roles and withdrawal. A flag or support share describes supplied observations and does not independently assess a child, verify consent or establish a clinical interpretation.
Summarize known caregiver response-mode pairs and changes.
When to use this tool
Use Caregiver Response Mode Gap when checking explicit developmental-study record and observation rules.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter itemIds, firstModes, secondModes, unknownMode. Keep parallel arrays aligned. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read pairedKnown, changedModes, unknownPairs. Use the output convention below.
Summarize known caregiver response-mode pairs and changes. Require aligned arrays and unique itemIds; exclude any pair containing unknownMode from pairedKnown and changedModes, counting those as unknownPairs.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| itemIds | Item Ids | Required. Array of text; maximum UTF-16 length 8192; maximum items 256. |
| firstModes | First Modes | Required. Array of text; maximum UTF-16 length 8192; maximum items 256. |
| secondModes | Second Modes | Required. Array of text; maximum UTF-16 length 8192; maximum items 256. |
| unknownMode | Unknown Mode | Required. Text; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| pairedKnown | Paired Known | Required. Safe integer. |
| changedModes | Changed Modes | Required. Safe integer. |
| unknownPairs | Unknown Pairs | Required. Safe integer. |

}Limitations and assumptions
- Modes compare literally; this does not infer reporting bias, consent or actual care context.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use an approved study protocol and appropriate professional assessment for participant decisions, developmental interpretation or clinical questions.
