Description

Count occurrences of claim in linkedClaims by exact string equality.

Consent, disclosure, duties and exceptions can be represented as records and flags. A consistency check describes those representations; it cannot independently establish valid consent, a justified exception or satisfaction of a real obligation.

Count occurrences of claim in linkedClaims by exact string equality.

When to use this tool

Use Claim Evidence Link Degree when you need a literal ethical-policy record or eligibility diagnostic.

  1. Enter claim, linkedClaims. Use the units and conventions below.
  2. Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.

Limitations and assumptions

  • Duplicates count separately and no source edges are authenticated. A larger count does not establish stronger evidence or a valid argument.
  • 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

Review source evidence, applicable rules and affected people's choices through the appropriate process. Authenticate permissions and evaluate substantive reasons separately from token membership and boolean flags.
