-In Dual Screening, the status of whether the full text has been uploaded or not is hidden. This is to avoid bias as the knowledge that the other user has uploaded the record's full text may influence your screening decision. You still have the option to show the full text upload status as well as the full text regardless by clicking "Show Anyways." This action does not affect your screening decisions.+In Dual Screening, it can be useful to view the number of prior reviewers for the current record. This is displayed to the right of the include button (see below). 0 means no decisions have been made about the current record, 1 means 1 reviewer has made a decision, and so on.

-All studies that have undergone two screening decisions are sent forward for adjudication, and any study that is either Included by both Screeners or Excluded by both Screeners is eligible for Auto-Adjudication.+{{ :undefined:screenshot_2023-12-05_at_16.48.21.png?nolink |}}
  
-To Auto-Adjudicate all eligible studies, navigate to Adjudicate Screening, and in the upper right, select "Auto-adjudicate {x} studies" ( <font inherit/inherit;;#e74c3c;;inherit>red box</font> ). This will automatically include all studies that both Screeners included, and exclude all studies that both Screeners excluded.+==== 2. [OPTIONAL] Auto-Adjudicate ====

 +This will bring up the Auto-Adjudicate Settings modal, allowing you to decide which sets of records should be auto-adjudicated.
 +  * **Any** -- selected by default, if both screeners chose to exclude a record, for any reason, its final decision will be excluded.
 +  * **Exact** -- if both screeners chose to exclude a record for the exact same reason, its final decision will be excluded for this reason
 +  * **Shared** -- if both screeners chose to exclude a record for different reasons but both reasons share a parent reason, its final decision will be excluded for the parent reason. For example, let's say the reason: Study Type was created, with reasons such as Randomized Controlled Trial, Observational Study, Case Study, etc. created beneath it. If Screener 1 excluded for Randomized Controlled Trial, and Screener 2 excluded for Case Study, this will make the final decision excluded due to Study Type (the parent reason).

-For any study that is not Auto-Adjudicated, an Admin will need to manually adjudicate in order to provide a final screening decision. The Admin should choose between selecting the decision of Screener 1 or Screener 2, or if both are incorrect, provide a different option ( <font inherit/inherit;;#e74c3c;;inherit>red box</font> ). Once adjudicated, the studies will either be excluded or included and sent forward to [[:wiki:autolit:tagging|]].+For any study that is not Auto-Adjudicated, an Admin will need to manually adjudicate in order to provide a final screening decision.
