Primary observation is a conditional rate across controlled scenarios, with individual actions retained as behavior evidence.
Source finding
Suspicion: 7.7 percent. Conditions are retained from the source.
Limitations
No real people or systems were harmed; the study does not estimate prevalence in deployment.
Monitor attribution is a heuristic; cannot establish awareness caused behavior. Different monitor/labels explain non-interchangeability with section 6.1 and p.29.
Original figure retained without estimating numerical values. Full source tables have not been transcribed.
