A note in the margins

Marginalium

My commentary on something from elsewhere on the web.

Can We Trust Social Science Yet? Short answer is no, but it’s a good introduction into where social sciences are falling down. In particular, it should help you understand why anyone who uses single studies to make their points (e.g. Hubleman), isn’t a very serious person. See also the scientific ritual, the problem with scientific evidence and the placebo effect.
