Primes

• Invisible Affordance
  • Welfare policy: non-take-up of entitlements, where legally enrolled populations do not claim benefits because the announcement apparatus does not intersect the surfaces the eligible population samples; take-up rates below 50% are routine.

    This sourceDocuments non-take-up of entitlements, with take-up rates routinely below 100% (often far lower) among eligible populations because information about the benefit does not reach the population that samples it.

    Supported in partVerified against the publisher's abstract

    Backs non-take-up of social security benefits as a studied European phenomenon, but the abstract reports no take-up rate and no announcement-apparatus mechanism.

    “The phenomenon of non-take-up of social security benefits has social policy implications and is therefore a relevant subject for study for social policy analysts.”

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.
