Sources

Every situation in the Same Words books names the researcher or organization it stands on. This page lists their key works, one per name, so you can look up any of them yourself.

The source is attached to a card as a whole. It means the card was written from that body of work. It does not mean the exact wording of any script was tested on its own.
