Codebook v2.0 and frozen hypotheses for coding crew-ground beliefs in Apollo anomaly records

This record freezes a coding protocol and four hypotheses before the coding of three held-out historical episodes. It contains three files. 1. STC_codebook_v2.0.md: rules for coding what the crew and the flight control team stated they believed during Apollo anomalies. Each cell records a content category and an evidence state (held, suspected, repeated, or no evidence) for three fields: the plan, the anomaly class, and the physical cause.2. hypotheses_v2.0_frozen.txt: four hypotheses with pass criteria, an interpretation rule for the agreement and correspondence measures, and a reliability gate (Krippendorff's alpha, lower 95% bound of 0.80).3. freeze_record_v2.0.txt: the date of the freeze and the SHA-256 hashes of files 1 and 2. Held-out episodes: Apollo 11 manual site avoidance, Apollo 13 S-II center engine shutdown, and Apollo 12 pinpoint landing. None had been coded under this codebook when the record was created.

Abstract

This record freezes a coding protocol and four hypotheses before the coding of three held-out historical episodes. It contains three files. 1. STC_codebook_v2.0.md: rules for coding what the crew and the flight control team stated they believed during Apollo anomalies. Each cell records a content category and an evidence state (held, suspected, repeated, or no evidence) for three fields: the plan, the anomaly class, and the physical cause.2. hypotheses_v2.0_frozen.txt: four hypotheses with pass criteria, an interpretation rule for the agreement and correspondence measures, and a reliability gate (Krippendorff's alpha, lower 95% bound of 0.80).3. freeze_record_v2.0.txt: the date of the freeze and the SHA-256 hashes of files 1 and 2. Held-out episodes: Apollo 11 manual site avoidance, Apollo 13 S-II center engine shutdown, and Apollo 12 pinpoint landing. None had been coded under this codebook when the record was created.
