<s>[INST] I'm trying to remember the word that researchers you to describe statements that are gut-feeling, as opposed to statements backed up with actual quantitative data. [/INST] One word that researchers use to describe statements that are "gut feeling" versus statements backed up with actual quantitative data could be "anecdotal". Anecdotal is something that is not necessarily true or reliable, because it is based on personal accounts rather than facts or research.</s>\ <s>[INST] Please use "anecdotal" in a sentence, related to research. [/INST] In the absence of any system of routine inspection, such evidence is bound to be anecdotal.</s>\ <s>[INST] Can you please provide a longer sentence using "anecdotal"? And be more descriptive on the topic of researching. [/INST]
