Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between evidence and judgment?
Evidence is what you observed, inference is what you reason from it, and judgment is your assessment. Keeping them separate lets readers see how you reached a conclusion.
How do analysts express confidence?
They use consistent terms for likelihood, such as likely or unlikely, and separate confidence levels based on source quality, corroboration and gaps. This avoids vague statements.
Why does precise wording matter in intelligence?
Vague words are read differently by different people and can lead to poor decisions. The Codelivly room is free and beginner-friendly, with hands-on practice in writing clear judgments.
