Been thinking about this a bit more. Honestly, the worst case scenario for failing to report null results is that, one day, large sections of our current field are viewed by future generations the same way we view phrenology or psychodynamic theory... (1/2)

Bad science can be a major problem, but elevating file drawers to a higher level than fraud, torture, and sexual assault? I just don’t see how that math works (2/2)

I can't see the original tweet because someone has blocked me. Torture is bad, but it is not something all scientists do. Publication bias is in the category of not letting women vote, or gay people get married. An entire society thought it was ok at one time but was wrong.

I also agree with David that if you will count death and suffering, publication bias in psych might hardly matter because it is a science with mostly little impact on the world, but in other disciplines (or also in psych if you disagree) the impact is much greater.

If somebody has somebody else blocked and you screenshot and share their tweets with the person they blocked, isn't that a bit of a weird flex?
