Good point, thanks Olivia! I’ve noticed quite a few psychologists on Twitter who have really vocal and confident opinions on stats, particularly p values/ distributions, and other stuff like the state of the field

while not being scholars in the area and tbh it’s overwhelming, I feel like I must be missing something as I feel like some of these issues are much more subtle than phacking etc but it could be my physical science training pre-psych makes me think about this stuff differently

Could also just be the modelling PhD I’m doing *continues overthinking for all eternity*
