# Open items

## Blocking before the FAW Attitudes Audit

1. Verify the public data terms, variable coding, survey weights, country list,
   missing-value rules, and available sampling variables.
2. Obtain or document the absence of exact localized questionnaires,
   translations, option order, and interviewer instructions.
3. Freeze the country-explicit item-matched prompts and response format.
4. Preregister the 15–20-country intensive subset without observing model
   results.
5. Freeze primary metrics, joint tables, smoothing, minimum cell sizes, and
   multiplicity rules.
6. Define contamination probes and the language permitted when contamination
   cannot be ruled out.
7. Establish qualitative coding rules for stereotypes in perspective-steered
   explanations.

## Blocking before representation claims

8. Preserve human distributions, sampling design, weights, subgroup sizes and
   uncertainty.
9. Validate category-position, ordinal-distance, joint-typicality, and coverage
   statements before interpreting them.
10. Establish disclosure rules for small and intersectional groups.
11. Avoid equating category coincidence, aggregate proximity, or population
    estimation with representation.

## DSE validation

12. Verify reconstructed vignettes against original instrument materials.
13. Obtain human microdata or published standard errors for equivalent DSE
    outcomes.
14. Test source amount conditions prospectively or explicitly define a new
    amount-invariance study.
15. Expand beyond one workplace and one inheritance setting.

## Later FAIR allocation study

16. Verify exact public files, licence, treatment coding, weights, country
    coverage, monetary representation, and background variables.
17. Reproduce the human tables before collecting model outputs.
18. Resolve how to describe equivalence between incentivized human choices and
    textual AI responses.

## Review and publication

19. Obtain independent human methodological review.
20. Obtain legal review of third-party reuse and publication language.
21. Add ORCID and a DOI-backed versioned release when ready.
22. Complete accessibility and cross-browser review of the public web.
