# Teams & Collaboration

> Invite collaborators, manage roles, and set up blinded reviewer groups

EviSyn supports team-based reviews with role-based access control and blinded reviewer groups for methodological rigor.

## Team Management

Your team name appears in the top navigation bar. Team features include:

### Team Roles

| Role              | Permissions                                                            |
| ----------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Admin**         | Full access: create/delete projects, manage team members, billing      |
| **Lead Reviewer** | Create projects, manage screening, resolve conflicts, finalize reviews |
| **Reviewer**      | Screen papers, review extractions, participate in quality assessment   |

### Adding Team Members

1. Navigate to **Team** settings from the top navigation
2. Invite members by email
3. Assign a role (Admin, Lead Reviewer, or Reviewer)

## Reviewer Groups (Blinded Review)

For reviews requiring independent, blinded assessment:

### Setting Up Blinded Review

1. Create 2+ **Reviewer Groups** (e.g., Group A, Group B)
2. Assign reviewers to each group
3. Enable **blinded mode** — group members cannot see:
   * AI screening decisions
   * Other groups' decisions
   * Overall screening statistics

### Conflict Resolution Workflow

When blinded review is enabled:

1. Each group reviews all papers independently
2. EviSyn automatically identifies **conflicts** (papers where groups disagree)
3. Conflicts are flagged in the Human Review dashboard
4. A designated **Lead Reviewer** resolves each conflict with a final decision
5. The resolution and reasoning are logged in the audit trail

### Inter-Rater Agreement

EviSyn automatically calculates **Cohen's kappa** when 2+ reviewer groups exist:

| Kappa Value | Interpretation |
| ----------- | -------------- |
| \< 0.20     | Poor agreement |
| 0.21-0.40   | Fair           |
| 0.41-0.60   | Moderate       |
| 0.61-0.80   | Substantial    |
| 0.81-1.00   | Almost perfect |

This metric is required for publication in most systematic review journals and is computed automatically — no manual calculation needed.

## Project-Level Collaboration

Each project tracks:

* Which team member made each screening decision
* Who performed each data extraction
* Who confirmed quality assessments
* Complete activity log with user attribution

<Note>
  All collaborative actions are attributed to the specific user in the audit trail, ensuring accountability and traceability.
