How to adapt it
Keep the main claim and visual treatment constant while varying only the proof point. Include the actual source and date for every statistic. Do not invent quotes, customers or performance numbers to fill placeholders.
When to ask
Run after evidence verification and before final campaign copy approval.
How to interpret responses
Compare comprehension and credibility across proof points, and inspect confusion in open answers. A persuasive response is not substantiation; legal and factual review remains separate.
Research context
A meta-analysis of environmental communication compared narrative and statistical evidence and found context-dependent effects. Its environmental topic and message conditions prevent a blanket rule that one format always wins; test the actual claim and audience. Read the Choi et al., Science Communication HTML abstract. This original questionnaire is not a validated research instrument.
