Несу вам отличный пост датаколады про p-hacking и не только. Ребята разбирают статью про
Первое предложение из поста:
A forthcoming paper in the Quarterly Journal of Economics (QJE), "A Cognitive View of Policing" (htm), reports results from a field experiment showing that teaching police officers to "consider different ways of interpreting situations they encounter" led to "reductions in use of force, [and] discretionary arrests" (abstract).
Вынесу еще мысль, которая мне понравилась:
This, obviously, is also defensible. 100s of choices are defensible. That's how p-hacking works. We cherry pick among defensible specifications. That's why good researchers with good intentions p-hack, it seems reasonable when you are doing it. I think these are excellent researchers with excellent intentions, and I think they p-hacked. I am not saying they are cheaters, I am saying they are human.
