11.7 million Africans, primarily from West Africa, to the Americas
judge verdicts (2)
- groundedness 1.00 pass — The claim is directly stated in the passage. The text explicitly mentions '11.7 million Africans, primarily from West Africa, to the Americas between the 16th and 19th centuries,' which fully supports the subject-predicate-object relationship and the specified time period.
- qualifier_fidelity 0.90 pass — The claim is nearly faithful to the passage qualifiers. Viewpoint, stance, sentiment, time (with properly normalized dates), and context are all accurate. The quote is verbatim and supports the claim. Minor deduction: the quote should ideally include 'involuntary immigration' to fully capture that this was forced migration, not voluntary, which is contextually important given the passage contrasts it with European migration. However, this is a minor issue as the passage clearly establishes involuntariness in the opening sentence. The claim's core qualifiers remain faithful overall.
11.7 million Africans...far outnumbering the about 3.4 million Europeans who migrated
judge verdicts (2)
- groundedness 1.00 pass — The claim is directly stated in the passage. The text explicitly says that 11.7 million Africans were imported 'far outnumbering the about 3.4 million Europeans who migrated' between the specified time periods, making this a fully supported claim with precise numerical evidence.
- qualifier_fidelity 0.85 pass — The claim is largely faithful to the passage. The quote accurately reflects the passage's statement about Africans outnumbering Europeans. However, there is a minor temporal qualifier issue: the passage specifies that the 11.7 million Africans arrived 'between the 16th and 19th centuries' while the 3.4 million Europeans migrated 'between 1492 and 1840.' The claim uses only the European timeframe (1492-1840) as its temporal scope, which does not fully capture the stated period for African immigration (16th-19th centuries). The viewpoint as 'author' is appropriate since the passage presents this as factual assertion without attribution to a named source. Stance and sentiment are correctly identified as neutral assertion. Context is appropriately empty as no specific sense restriction is given.
The Africans were less likely to die, too, from those diseases that had been brought to the New World
judge verdicts (2)
- groundedness 1.00 pass — The claim is directly stated in the passage with an exact quote: 'The Africans were less likely to die, too, from those diseases that had been brought to the New World.' The subject, predicate, and object all match the passage verbatim without any rewording or extrapolation.
- qualifier_fidelity 1.00 pass — All qualifiers are faithful to the passage. The viewpoint is correctly identified as 'author' (the passage presents this as a historical fact without attribution to a named source). The stance 'asserts' is appropriate as the passage states this as fact, not as disputed or questioned. The sentiment 'neutral' matches the passage's objective, explanatory tone. The time qualifiers are correctly null as the passage provides no specific temporal scope beyond the general 16th-19th century period of the Atlantic slave trade, which applies to the context rather than this specific claim. The context is appropriately empty as the passage does not restrict this claim to a particular sense or role. The quote appears verbatim in the passage and directly supports the claim.
- Atlantic slave trade consisted of involuntary immigration of Africans between the 16th and 19th centuries
The Atlantic slave trade consisted of the involuntary immigration of 11.7 million Africans
judge verdicts (2)
- groundedness 1.00 pass — The claim is directly stated in the passage's opening sentence, which explicitly states that 'The Atlantic slave trade consisted of the involuntary immigration of 11.7 million Africans, primarily from West Africa, to the Americas between the 16th and 19th centuries.' The subject, predicate, object, timeframe, and author stance all match the passage exactly.
- qualifier_fidelity 1.00 pass — All qualifiers are faithful to the passage. The viewpoint is correctly attributed to the author (no named source in the passage attributes this statement differently). The stance 'asserts' matches the declarative framing in the passage. The sentiment is neutral, appropriate for a factual historical statement. The time qualifiers correctly reflect the passage's 'between the 16th and 19th centuries' with normalized dates 1500-1899. Context is appropriately empty as the passage provides no restrictive context. The quote is verbatim from the passage and directly supports the claim.
