# Analysis Depth Guide
|
|
|
|
Move beyond “method A > method B”.
|
|
|
|
## Four-layer depth ladder
|
|
|
|
### 1. Observation
|
|
What changed?
|
|
- absolute gap
|
|
- relative gap
|
|
- stability change
|
|
- subgroup pattern
|
|
|
|
### 2. Interpretation
|
|
What is the most defensible explanation?
|
|
- optimization stability
|
|
- inductive bias match
|
|
- subject/domain shift handling
|
|
- data scarcity sensitivity
|
|
|
|
### 3. Constraint
|
|
What prevents overclaiming?
|
|
- low sample size
|
|
- only one dataset
|
|
- missing subgroup coverage
|
|
- no robustness sweep
|
|
|
|
### 4. Decision
|
|
What should happen next?
|
|
- promote into durable result note
|
|
- run an ablation
|
|
- stop an unpromising branch
|
|
- update the active plan
|
|
|
|
## Good report sentence pattern
|
|
- “We observe X.”
|
|
- “This supports Y because Z evidence is present.”
|
|
- “However, the claim is bounded by A.”
|
|
- “Therefore the next decision is B.”
