HCD.11:4.4 - Judge contributions and repair only the affected inference

Compare each observed contribution with its criterion. Distinguish a demonstrated error from an absent observation, an inaccessible task and a disputed judgement. Do not give a missing observation the value “failed” unless the task conditions made the required non-response itself informative.

For a material scoring disagreement, return to the same observation and criterion. Clarify an ambiguous criterion or obtain another qualified assessor when needed. If the original task did not discriminate the relevant alternatives, withhold the dependent judgement. Select a new task when resolving that distinction for the receiving use warrants the obtainable observation and its whole burden. Averaging incompatible judgements does not settle what happened.

When feedback or a task repair changes the conditions, preserve the first result and report the later result under the changed conditions. A later success can support a new claim; it does not rewrite an earlier failure.
