Methodology & Statistical Integrity

This analysis applies statistical frequency analysis to aggregated consumer feedback data. No individual reviews or business entities are evaluated.

Signals are activated only when prevalence exceeds their signal-specific activation threshold within the actionable feedback subset (Rating ≤ 3 or explicit friction markers). Each signal has a unique threshold defined in the Signal Dictionary. Certain linguistic imbalance signals operate under lower activation thresholds (2%) due to their higher sensitivity in medical communication contexts.
