I think some refined version of Amy Cuddy's power pose stuff will get vindicated at some point. My spidey sense tells me there's a there there. The stats police kinda won round 1 on procedural grounds rather than persuasive falsification of the intuition with an alt theory
Only the precession of mercury orbit iirc. The rest were predictions. I'd say power posing is a normative version of a natural behavior that needs a better account. And note, one effect (felt power) *was* replicated

So then the question is, what other things can or can't produce the same "effect"? Jumping jacks? Push ups? Swearing in a pillow? To me, the whole genesis of power posing is pretty lazy as scientific inquiry goes.
