Is most published research wrong?

- Start date
Stripe, a video that mentions a few cases of poor research that got published doesn't mean all of science is a farce.
Looks like you didn't watch the video. Get back to us when you have.

Here's a text article on the same subject: http://bigthink.com/neurobonkers/be...ublished-research-findings-are-probably-false
Are you expecting me to argue with that sentiment?
Nope. I watched the whole thing and largely agree with it. What did you think?
Not unless it conflicts with your particular need for a literal Genesis.
So you've got nothing of substance to add?

It is a sensible paper, pointing out that the preponderance of small sample, low power, marginally statistically significant research without independent verification, largely in the fields sociology and medicine, is encouraged by the funding and publishing arrangements.
I've always argued for verification experiments in the Creation/Evolution thread, but Stripe rejected that approach for the radiodating discussion, preferring an unverified, underpowered measurement whilst ignoring the repeatedly verified findings.
Why is that, Stripe?

Making things up wasn't the way to go. :nono:
The video describes a problem that applies to all research and of course I support verification.

You should have paid attention to it and read the paper linked on the YouTube page. It quite clearly applies particularly to unrelated, statistical, low power and marginal p value research.
Or didn't you get past the video summary and on to the meat of the research?
Get back when you've read it, then you might have something sensible to contribute.
Most everything that men in general believe and
hold dear to be that of the truth
about God and His creation and Kingdom...
is mostly incorrect.
go away troll - :troll:
Nope.
The video describes a pervasive issue, one that he claimed was beginning to be addressed.
You don't get to make things up, sonny.

Read the paper, it'll save you from drawing incorrect conclusions from a brief YouTube summary.
