    Results from OddPub: We did not detect open data. We also did not detect open code. Researchers are encouraged to share open data when possible (see Nature blog).


    Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:
    The findings of our study should be interpreted with certain limitations in mind. The study captured a snapshot of prevailing levels of compliance which can vary substantially with time depending on the coverage and success of interventions. Also, even though we standardized how observations in the stations should be done, individual biases could have still been introduced in the data collection process. Despite these limitations, we believe our findings apply to other public transport stations across the country, making our research relevant for policy directions.

    Results from TrialIdentifier: No clinical trial numbers were referenced.


    Results from Barzooka: We did not find any issues relating to the usage of bar graphs.


    Results from JetFighter: We did not find any issues relating to colormaps.

    About SciScore

    SciScore is an automated tool that is designed to assist expert reviewers by finding and presenting formulaic information scattered throughout a paper in a standard, easy to digest format. SciScore checks for the presence and correctness of RRIDs (research resource identifiers), and for rigor criteria such as sex and investigator blinding.
