CSMF Accuracy of random allocation as a function of CoD list length. The mean CSMF accuracy of random allocation was calculated with 10,000 Monte Carlo replicates for cause-list length ranging from 3 to 50. The CSMF accuracy decreases monotonically as a function of J and appears to stay above 1 − 1/e ≈ 0.632, which we selected for our chance-correction parameter
