I do feel schadenfreude. For decades, self-righteous, feel good people in social psychology telling us to believe their stuff. No clothing on that field, re-evaluate every claim.https://twitter.com/hardsci/status/1000120298639802368 …

Social psychology is basically just a way to spread far left politics while pretending to do "science"http://atavisionary.com/stereotype-threat-and-and-pseudo-scientists/ …

I do think most social psychologists are honest about their work. However, they are fairly innumerate and very skewed politically (like 20 to 1 Dem-Rep), so their results tend to be whatever one can QRP to fit with their general view of the world, i.e. leftist politics.

Well, from what I have read they mostly do not share the data they make conclusions from. They may be hiding it because they don't want to get scooped by "colleagues." But frankly, that doesn't inspire much confidence.

They share a lot more now a days. But data sharing issues are widespread in science, it is not a social psychology thing. But yes, lack of data sharing is IMO suspicious.

You are right. Trust of "colleagues" or the extremely obvious lack thereof is the biggest problem in all sciences. Still, some "sciences" are more important to public policy than others. Secrecy in Morel genetics isn't going to harm society like fake results on stereotype threat

Unfortunately, the socially most important science, in so far as policy is the most important matter, is the social ones, and these are the most biased and the ones with the lowest standards, and also the least numerate participants and least bright.
