The idea

Validation means assessing the body of evidence and other relevant documents against a set of criteria, deciding what is credible enough to carry forward.

In practice

Retrieved evidence judged against stated criteria rather than by impression.

Where people slip

This is Part 1's critical appraisal, appearing inside a model as a named phase with a decision at the end of it.
