Our a priori definition of the unit of randomisation was a cluster of villages and the health centre where the residents of those villages seek healthcare. We then used the Geographic Information System (GIS) [13] tool to assess the internal validity of our definition by mapping villages to ...
This overlap does not affect the validity of the test results but may limit the demonstrated generalizability of the method to entirely new training datasets. Future work will seek to further validate the method on independent training datasets to confirm its robustness across different data sources....
In order to test the real-world validity of cobot-assisted training in the largely unexplored field of supporting workers with disabilities, the present study employed its application under real working conditions over a longer period of observation. Thus, it represents a groundbreaking addition to ...
