Social Psych 1999: There’s an effect called Dunning-Kruger. Incompetent ppl are unable to recognize their own incompetence. SP 2011: Uh oh. We’ve a replication crisis. Maybe we’ve been doing stats wrongly? SP 2019: We don’t need expert statisticians to help us fix our subfield.https://twitter.com/dan_p_simpson/status/1145219937100865536 …

They don’t need theory, they don’t need computational modelling, philosophy, experimental psychology, … sounds like inbreeding to me or is it perhaps self-preservation? Btw, who are they? I mean, are they really representatives of the subfield?

I don't think so. I'm cringing a little at the piling on here. We don't need to rag on an entire area of science just because of who's bum rushed the stage and grabbed the microphonepic.twitter.com/SLDIUxvsMw

I would have thought so, but then, perhaps because I am an outsider, I miss the other, discordant, voices. Of course, as it is often the case, these are less public and salient.

Fair enough. I've seen more than one person with a big number of followers say they don't need statisticians from that subfield and repeatedly so, but I am happy to hear I'm wrong too.

To be clear: I don't actually know what opinions are most common. I'm not in a psychology department either. But high-follower Twitter accounts are not a representative sample

I am in a lab that does social psych stuff and in a psych dept and I'm aware what is and is not representative in that area BUT I also think it's fair game if you act silly and say you are speaking for a subfield for me to able to subtweet you.
