Improving reasoning in intelligence analysis is of vital national importance. The trackable reasoning and analysis for crowdsourcing and evaluation project takes a user-centered design approach combined with rigorous experimentation to ascertain effective structured techniques to support high-quality reasoning. Results suggest a light structure is more effective than a rigid structure.
