Abstract
Crowdsourcing can be used to assess the quality of systematic reviews. Novices can be trained to appraise systematic reviews and, on average, achieve a high degree of accuracy relative to experts. These proof-of-concept data demonstrate the merit of crowdsourcing, compared with current gold standards of appraisal, and the potential capacity for this approach to transform evidence-based practice worldwide by sharing the appraisal load.
