Uncertainty-Driven Verification Premium
- Publishing and academia. Editors and grant panels take fewer chances on first-time authors and unconventional topics, and citations concentrate on canonical sources during methodological turmoil.
  This sourceDocuments that grant evaluators systematically give lower scores to highly novel proposals, evidence of panel conservatism that takes fewer chances on unconventional work.

Verification¶

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
