Yu\nJournal: Journal of College Student Health, 2024, 18(2), 77-91\nAbstract: We surveyed 1,200 first-year students at three public universities about their typical sleep and matched responses to fall-semester GPA. Students reporting under 7 hours of sleep had a mean GPA 0.3 points lower than those reporting 7 or more hours. Because this is a one-time survey, we cannot say whether short sleep causes lower grades. Future studies should follow students over time.\n\nMy notes: discussion post due Thursday, prof wants one cited source.","rules":[{"type":"numberedItems","count":4},{"type":"maxWords","max":120},{"type":"plainText"}],"mistakes":[{"title":"Not naming the judge","why":"The AI compares the answers to each other and picks the one that sounds more careful.","fix":"Add: \"Judge both only against the abstract.\"","checks":["r0","r1"]},{"title":"Missing the cause claim","why":"\"Linked to\" and \"causes\" look similar, and the AI often lets it slide.","fix":"Add: \"Check whether each answer claims more than the study can show.\"","checks":["r0"]},{"title":"No sentence you can use","why":"The AI tells you what's wrong but you still have to write the post line and citation yourself.","fix":"Add: \"Post sentence: one sentence, no cause claim, ending (Hendricks & Yu, 2024).
