Live Evidence Map

AIR-SPJ Evidence Map

A live visualization of every framework element and the approved research evidence behind it. Larger nodes have more evidence. Connections reveal which elements share the same research. The map updates automatically as submissions are reviewed.

How to Read This Map

Node size = evidence

Larger outer nodes have more approved evidence connections. Faint small nodes have none yet.

Amber dashes = shared source

Two elements connected by the same piece of research. Indicates overlapping risk factors.

Faint dots = cluster link

Elements in the same evidence cluster — indirectly connected through a chain of shared research.

Glow ring = cluster member

A colored ring appears when hovering a node that belongs to an evidence cluster of 3 or more elements.

What the Evidence Shows

Strongest evidence base

D01-E01 — Intensity of Use

26 approved evidence connections — the best-supported element in the current framework. Drawn from AI Interaction Profile.

Most evidenced domain

D01 — AI Interaction Profile

89 connections across 6 of 6 elements — the domain with the most research backing to date.

Largest evidence cluster

79-element cluster — led by D01-E01

79 framework elements are connected through shared research sources, suggesting a core risk pathway where a single study spans multiple dimensions of AI-mediated harm.

Most cross-connected element

D01-E03 — Thematic Content of Use

Shares evidence sources with 68 other elements — indicating research that bridges multiple areas of the framework simultaneously.
