Practice caution
Automated inferenceWhat to watch for when applying this to practice
Bias and transferability prompts from the title and abstract only — not a critical appraisal, author statement, or clinical recommendation.
Cross-sectional designs cannot establish causation. Avoid assuming that an associated factor will produce the same change in practice.
Setting cues point to school. Transferability to other practice environments may be limited.
Student or campus samples often differ from community or clinical caseloads. Check ecological validity for your practice context.
Title/abstract may not discuss racial, ethnic, or equity dimensions. Review the full text for representation before transferring findings.
