Резюме	A pilot-tested experiment log is a structured research instrument — a systematic journal of experimental procedures, observations, and results — that has been trialed with a small representative sample before full deployment. The pilot phase identifies ambiguous recording fields, impractical time demands, or inconsistent terminology, enabling targeted revisions that improve the log's reliability and completeness before the main data-collection phase begins.	A research diary is a systematic, dated log maintained by the researcher throughout a study to record methodological decisions, emergent observations, analytical hunches, and reflections on researcher positionality. Unlike a participant diary, it is authored by the researcher and functions simultaneously as a data source, an audit trail, and a reflexivity instrument.
