@sapinker but I'm assuming this "gold standard" doesn't include unreported sexual assaults, which there's much reason to believe r many. -
@ursus_marit@sapinker Woman today are more likely to report a rape than they were in the 1970s. The decline is thus larger than we observe. -
@CZAR__KING@sapinker reference? -
@ursus_marit@sapinker (Pinker, 402) ). -
@CZAR__KING@sapinker Better Angels? That's a popular book, not peer-reviewed research. -
@CZAR__KING@sapinker not saying the research to support doesn't exist, but seems hard to directly know what's not reported. -
@ursus_marit@sapinker Absolutely. Unfortunately that is one of the pit-falls of the social sciences. Studying humans empirically is tricky. -
@CZAR__KING@sapinker agree-which is why I'm curious if there's research w/decently rigorous methodology to support your initial claim. - 3 more replies
