Taking down LaCour

2015-06-03 16:15:46.868147+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

New York Magazine: How a grad student uncovered a huge fraud. Fascinating look at the takedown of the LaCour "how we change our opinions" study. Also a good look at academic politics, and why we need the ability to have pseudonymous discussion.

Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
