RMP.1:4.5 - Record the Result

A passing ResearchQuestionBrief contains these positions:

Result position	Required content
receiver and use	Named receiver, proposed bounded evidence use, affected decision or practice, and the authority that remains outside research.
intended episteme change	Exact claim or corpus contribution that could be retained, narrowed, rejected, qualified, or added.
bounded question	Answerable question with phenomenon, unit, case, population or corpus, relation or contrast, constraints, and effective horizon where material.
qualified current frame	The source answer prepared through §4.3 or supplied for the same use, with its source editions, relevant alternatives, omissions and applicability limits.
membership account	Separate pass reasons for all four conditions and the nearest non-member considered.
criticism demand	Principal error, rival, invalid source use, dependence, bias, missing context, or unsupported transfer that a defensible answer must expose.
constraints and owner results	Domain criteria, safety, ethics, rights, confidentiality, access, instrument, authority, resource, or other conditions already supplied or still external.
answer condition	What the evidence must establish for an adequate answer to the bounded question, including applicable uncertainty and scope.
work-stop and reopen conditions	When the present work can finish with that answer or with a refusal, retained uncertainty or missing-input return; which unmet answer condition remains and what could reopen inquiry.
source and result limits	What the supplied source results establish, what they do not establish, and any source/result that must be returned rather than improvised.
continuation	Compatible brief and frame for RMP.2. No selected design, protocol, authorization, or receiving decision is implied.

When a supplied result already answers the current use, return that answer with the source, applicability and limitation information the receiver needs to use it correctly. The current exchange or existing work product may already contain the whole result. Stop with that answer: no ResearchQuestionBrief, unused card answers, separate form or justification for omitting a study is required.

If someone will rely on the answer later or for a different use, retain the exact source/result and the scope, currentness or uncertainty that can change that receiver’s reliance. Reuse an adequate existing explanation; add only the missing limitation or reason needed for that use.

For an exact non-research return or research-boundary hold, make the following relations recoverable from the available material or a short return:

Return position	Required content
current question	The unresolved wording that arrived, without silently rewriting it into a different owner problem.
disposition basis	Supplied-answer sufficiency, nearest non-member, or named missing/stale source or owner result.
available material	Exact current results and limits worth carrying to the receiver or owner.
return target and expected result	Direct owner or supplier interface and the result kind needed next.
effect and retry	What stops now, what can continue, and the condition that would reopen RMP.1.
