- Reposted by Janne TukiainenAll of us—including myself—should publish fewer but better papers. And we should spend more of our time on scrutinizing existing work, so we know which claims can be trusted. But that's hard work with little recognition. Thanks @sophieehill.bsky.social for doing it. Impressive 🕵️♀️ work. Fun to read.
- Blog post: github.com/sophieehill/... TL;DR: There are a LOT of errors/inconsistencies in the results reported in this paper (estimates outside CIs, sign errors, duplicates, asymmetric CIs). Even in the abstract itself! This suggests manual editing of results tables. Which is not good... 🧵
