How We Write: Editorial Standards

Editorial standards

Rational Growth is accountable for the accuracy, scope, and clarity of every page it publishes. These standards apply to the current public collection.

Focused publication scope

New and updated articles must fit one of three areas: ADHD and everyday executive-function systems, education and learning systems, or decision and productivity systems. Medical treatment, investment recommendations, general news, supplements, and unrelated technology coverage are outside the current editorial scope.

Source and claim standards

  • Factual research claims should link to the paper, official institution, or primary documentation used.
  • Author names, publication years, titles, and links must refer to the same source.
  • A source must support the nearby claim; URL availability alone is not evidence.
  • Unverified personal stories, invented examples presented as experience, and unsupported statistics are not acceptable.
  • Uncertainty and study limitations should be stated when they affect the practical conclusion.

Automation and human accountability

Automation may assist with research organization, drafting, formatting, link checking, and repetitive quality checks. It does not receive an author byline. Seokhui Lee is the named publisher and accountable editor for the currently published articles.

Health and ADHD boundaries

ADHD content on this site is general educational information. It does not diagnose a condition, recommend medication, replace therapy, or provide individualized medical advice. Readers should consult a qualified professional for diagnosis or treatment decisions.

Corrections

Readers can report an error through the contact page. Please include the page URL, the disputed sentence, and supporting evidence. Confirmed material errors should be corrected promptly; a page that cannot be supported should be revised or removed from public view.

Updates

Pages are reviewed when a material error is reported, a cited source changes, or new evidence affects the conclusion. A displayed update date records the latest substantive editorial change, not a cosmetic formatting change.
