But how do we know that the scientist that did THIS research didn’t play with his data? If the answer is that a lot of scientists cheat, can any be trusted?
What exactly does he mean when he says:
...”When these factors were controlled for”...
“If the answer is that a lot of scientists cheat, can any be trusted?”
The only sure bet is that hard scientists, by several orders of magnitude, can be trusted over, lawyers, brokers, politicians and other used car salesmen.
Am I missing something, or did Fanelli target scientists who had published on the subject of scientific misconduct?
You would think she (I’m guessing Daniele is a woman) would have attempted to survey scientists who hadn’t published on the topic of scientific misconduct.....
Actually, if you really want to get at the truth, you’d interview the lower-level technicians....
