Separate measurement from interpretation · S12.4

Ask what a biofeedback reading can and cannot tell you

A device or service offers feedback about a bodily measurement.

Consider a practice claim

Try these steps

1. Identify what is measured, how it is collected, and who interprets it.
2. Ask about intended use, evidence, accuracy, privacy, suitability, and the limits of conclusions from the reading.
3. Discuss clinical use with an appropriately qualified professional rather than treating a score as an emotional diagnosis.

An example

Does this reading measure a specific signal, and what would a change actually mean?

Reflect

Are measurement and interpretation clearly distinguished?

Next time

Keep treatment decisions within appropriate professional guidance.
