RMP.2:12 - Relations

  • RMP.1 — Decide Whether a Question Needs Research and When to Stop: supplies the compatible ResearchQuestionBrief and qualified current frame. A changed question, use, frame, or useful stop returns there.
  • RMP.1:4.3: shows how F.1, F.0.1 and A.10 contribute to an answer from existing sources and how a comparison can change the research question. RMP.2 uses that answer, its limitations and any unresolved criticism demand to decide whether and how to investigate.
  • Current Method Engineering: owns reusable Method identity, repertoire, requirements, architecture, qualification, trial, fit, worth, variants, and introduction. RMP.2 selects a research strategy for one qualified question; it does not qualify a reusable Method.
  • Operationalization and trace practice: RMP.3 requires an actual ResearchDesignDecision and its genuine PostSelectionNeed items, or compatible supplied equivalents. EvidenceSufficientStop, QualifiedNoNewStudy and ResearchDesignHold do not supply a selected design. Subsequent trace practice preserves the records of actual Work; the RMP.2 disposition does not assert that Work occurred.
  • Domain science and engineering, measurement and instrument owners, archives and data stewards, site and participant owners, ethics, safety, rights, privacy, security, community, resource, provider, assurance, and receiving authorities: supply their own results and retain their own decisions.
  • MRC/NIHR complex-intervention framework: supports perspective pluralism, uncertainty-led design, non-linear entry, reconsideration, and stopping for its declared intervention-research scope.
  • SRQR, AHA professional standards, Cochrane Handbook, and National Academies reproducibility/replicability account: provide family-specific transparency and criticism distinctions; none is a universal design selector.
