概要
 Can you spot problems in a scientific study just by reading the published paper? We put our statistical sleuthing skills to the test with a famous study on procrastination and deadlines that was retracted more than 20 years after it was published. But were there clues hidden in plain sight in the published results—and would we have noticed anything suspicious at the time? We put on our data-detective hats and find a few statistical clues of our own before turning to Data Colada’s investigation of the original data, where the story gets even stranger. Along the way, we hunt for missing participants, question suspiciously enormous effects, meet some unlikely data twins, and discover why sometimes the best statistical tool is simply asking: Do these data behave like real people?Statistical topicsStatistical sleuthingEffect sizesDegrees of freedomReplicationMissing dataMethodologic Morals“A data detective's toolbox is surprisingly simple.
