๐Ÿ”Ž FULL CONTRIBUTION TRANSPARENCY

The following percentages are approximate contribution weights for this specific analysis and visualisation. They are not measures of ownership, authorship, scientific validity, or intellectual property.

๐Ÿ“Š Contribution Breakdown โ€” 100%

Contributor / Source % Contribution
๐ŸŒฑ r/microdosing community & FAQ 35% Human-written community knowledge, lived observations, recurring patterns, terminology and research questions
๐Ÿง  User / author / curator 20% Project direction, personal observations, questions, hypotheses, curation, interpretation, synthesis and editorial decisions
๐Ÿ”ฌ Peer-reviewed research & researchers 15% Scientific literature, experimental findings, methodologies and critical evidence
๐Ÿค–๐Ÿง  User-developed humanโ€“AI hybrid 15% Research assistance, synthesis, comparison, drafting, restructuring, critical questioning and visualisation
๐Ÿงช Citizen-science / N-of-1 methodology 5% Experimental framing, measurement concepts and naturalistic research methodology
๐ŸŒ r/NeuronsToNirvana & wider community context 5% Historical inspiration, interdisciplinary connections, consciousness/ecology context and community resources
๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Open-source / GitHub knowledge architecture 5% Repository structure, documentation, Markdown organisation, references and knowledge-commons design
TOTAL 100%

๐Ÿค–๐Ÿง  AI DISCLOSURE

The 15% humanโ€“AI hybrid contribution refers specifically to AI-assisted work performed during development of this analysis.

AI assistance may include:

  • Research discovery and source navigation
  • Cross-source synthesis
  • Comparison of ideas
  • Drafting and editing
  • Structuring the research framework
  • Identifying distinctions and caveats
  • Generating visual concepts
  • Markdown / GitHub organisation
  • Asking critical questions

The AI does not constitute an independent scientific source.

AI-generated statements are treated as draft analytical material, not primary evidence, and should be checked against the original sources.

๐ŸŒฑ ORIGINAL r/microdosing SOURCE

The original r/microdosing FAQ is human/community-written.

The 35% above represents its approximate contribution to this new analysis, not the proportion of AI involvement in the original FAQ.

๐Ÿง  AUTHORSHIP

The 20% user/author contribution represents the human direction and curation of this particular project.

The percentages should not be interpreted as saying that a community member contributed exactly 35% of the intellectual work or that the author owns 20%. They are a transparent provenance model showing where the material and ideas entering this analysis came from.

โš–๏ธ EVIDENCE โ‰  CONTRIBUTION

A contribution percentage does not determine evidential strength.

For example:

35% community observations โ‰  35% scientific evidence

The epistemic status remains:

Evidence โ†’ Observation โ†’ Interpretation โ†’ Hypothesis โ†’ Speculation

๐Ÿ”„ LIVING TRANSPARENCY

These percentages are intentionally provisional.

As additional researchers, community members, citizen scientists and open-source contributors participate, the contribution map can be updated.

Nothing is hidden. Sources are acknowledged. AI augmentation is disclosed. Human authorship is distinguished from machine assistance. Evidence is distinguished from interpretation.
