@PsychRabble@EpistemiclyRich This refers to the discussion of symmetry theses on pp. 5-7, which is clear in the paper. What is it you are objecting to? That I used the word "everything" instead of a longer description in this sentence? You seem fixated on specific words taken out of context.
@PsychRabble@EpistemiclyRich Insults have no effect on me. What I wanted to say is that if you care about science, please try to adopt a more scientific attitude in your communication (e.g., reading what is actually said, being impartial, not ridiculing...). I realize social media are not ideal for this.
@PsychRabble@EpistemiclyRich The paper is relevant because it shows that relying on LWA-scales for this would be as problematic as relying on RWA-scales. Two wrongs don't make a right.
@PsychRabble@EpistemiclyRich If you're really interested in science, then I am definitely not your enemy. I am as far from an activist as it is possible to get. I couldn't care less about the US culture wars. Criticizing ideas and arguments (which I did) is a normal part of science.
@PsychRabble@EpistemiclyRich 2. If you actually read the paper, you must have understood that it is saying that this is an implicit assumption in the LWA papers and not something that is explicitly argued. You seem so preoccupied with ridiculing those who you see as enemies..
@SteveStuWill This interpretation is midleading. There is a difference between obedience to ideological ingroup authorities and non-ideological obedience to those in positions of authority in society.
@ianhussey @sabrina_norwood Representative of what? These are mostly fairly prestigious journals. The average paper is published in a less prestigious journal.
@DinaPomeranz The size of the effect is uniterpretable. There is no consistent explanation of what the lines in the graph actually represent (or even what was measured), as far as I can tell.
