From Big Questions to focused queries
Choose a query to see its linked source records. Twelve cards turn broad questions into proposed investigations. Two trials have initial appraisals; other study assessments remain pending.

BQ001: continuity of consciousness · BQ002: origins of thought · BQ003: love and wider consciousness (candidate). Compassion outcomes alone do not establish the BQ003 cosmic hypothesis.
Suggested first review queue and assessment checklist
These are proposed priorities, not completed appraisals.
- Metta therapy trial + protocol: compare planned and reported outcomes, controls, attrition and follow-up. Keep their shared trial registration together.
- Dreaming as mind wandering: assess the synthesis behind the BQ002 link and its limits.
- NDE temporality + corrigendum: assess recruitment and retrospective reporting, keeping the correction with its parent article.
- IONS-linked meditation survey: resolve the 1,120 / 1,130 discrepancy and inspect OSF access and dataset permissions.
- AWARE encyclopedia lead: follow references to original studies before extracting clinical findings.
For each original study record: question; design; sample; measures; results; effect sizes and uncertainty where available; limitations; competing explanations; registration; corrections; data availability; rights; study lineage; BQ relevance; reviewer and review date.
