6. INT-EXT-006 — Data Extraction, Evidence Organization, Study Characteristics and Evidence Matrix Development
Description:
This Master Prompt would focus on systematically transforming the included literature into a structured evidence base suitable for integration. It would guide researchers in designing data-extraction forms; recording bibliographic, methodological, population, contextual, theoretical, intervention and outcome information; standardizing extracted information across heterogeneous studies; organizing evidence matrices; and maintaining traceability between original studies and subsequent analytical interpretations.
A major emphasis would be placed on preserving methodological and contextual differences while creating sufficient comparability for synthesis. Researchers would avoid forcing fundamentally different evidence into inappropriate common categories and would identify missing, incompletely reported or non-comparable information explicitly. The resulting evidence matrix would provide the analytical bridge between study selection, quality appraisal and higher-level synthesis.
