Thanks to @Lizstuartdc for her advice on the methods and @ECHSResearch for being a generous and brilliant colleague. And all credit shared with my coauthors @SarahCFuller1 and @fatih_unlu_R

Well that was a fun surprise! In this paper we tackle generalization, which is a lot to do in one paper b/c it takes probing sample selection, moderation, and constructing a pooled estimator. 1/1

@eahouck Nooooooo. Where am I going to get Pot Roast with Mashed Potatoes and gravy with a side of fried Brussels? Starbucks?

[Doug Lauen @dlauen]

@ehutt1 @spcorcor18 Usually I take it and then agonize about trying to find something redeeming bc it is sad to get a highly polished paper on a bad question. That takes time so maybe next time I just skip it. But I also seeing the value of a quick response from one person who thinks he knows!

[Doug Lauen @dlauen]

Suppose you get a review request from an editor at a good journal and you know immediately that the question is silly. Do you generally a) decline the request, b) review and reject, or c) read it in hopes of maybe changing your mind and giving it an R&R. And why?
