@Plinz@policecar My point wasn't that the other paper is superior though. This current vignette study was overhyped. You disagree?1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@_r_c_a No, I don't know that it was overhyped. But then again, I don't watch TV; perhaps I missed it. A Pinker tweet is not overhype, IMHO1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@_r_c_a That is indeed a lot of ado, but also not about nothing (they wrote to >2000 people etc., and claim a surprising result) @policecar
