HCD.3:4.4 - Record the Result

A qualified intervention target contains:

Result positionRequired content
use boundaryHuman holder, later-Work demand, configuration, horizon, evidence window, receiving decision, participation basis, and governance limits.
observed gapClaim-sized Work observation, intended result or critical-error boundary, and why the gap matters.
targetThe person’s difficulty with the required contribution and the smallest supported human change to target under the named conditions. A later decision selects any practice or other intervention.
evidenceObservations, work products, contrasts, inference rule, uncertainty, and contamination or measurement limits.
rival dispositionThe explanations considered, any still-plausible alternatives, and their effects on the target and next observation. When none remain, keep the evidence limits and reopen condition explicit.
protected conditionsMethod, task, tools, prompts, information, time, environment, assignment, authority, supports, and specialist routes held or bounded.
intended observationThe target change to observe, its conditions, and the claim that would depend on it. Explaining a result as an effect of the intervention through that target requires evidence for each link.
boundaries and continuationDirect specialist or owner boundary, unsupported uses, and the condition that reopens the target.

Observed performance may be reported with its conditions before a causal explanation is established. A better score alone establishes neither a change in the proposed target nor the intervention’s effect through that target.

A non-training return contains:

Result positionRequired content
actual owner or missing resultThe direct Method, tool, assignment, organization, authority, specialist, evidence, or other owner and the exact result or value needed.
blocked HCD decisionThe diagnosis or later development decision that cannot be made.
evidence and rival dispositionWhat is known, what remains unresolved, and why a human target is not supported.
safe interim boundaryWhat must not be assigned, inferred, prescribed, or used meanwhile.
retry conditionThe exact new result, protected observation, owner decision, or compatible evidence that permits reconsideration.
