I kinda wish that there was a simple way to quickly see if a paper has been peer reviewed. Findings like these are interesting observations at best until they've been replicated and controlled by independent parties... Still an interesting study. :)
- ASpring 9y agoI think you're just talking about replication. Peer review is the process where authors submit a manuscript and receive feedback from reviewers about the merits of their paper and how to strengthen it. This was published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, an APA Journal. You can find their peer review process here (under "The Peer Review Process"): http://www.apa.org/pubs/authors/new-author-guide.aspx http://www.apa.org/pubs/authors/new-author-guide.aspx
- skybrian 9y agoThat would be nice, but it's my understanding that to really know what's going on in a scientific field, you need to read a bunch of papers in the field, not just one paper. It would be great to see more summaries of papers from trustworthy sources. For computer science there is The Morning Paper [1] but I don't know what there is for other fields.

- wastra 9y agoA lot of peer reviewed literature is also junk, and occasionally non-peer-reviewed papers are breathtaking. One of my favourite (peer reviewed) articles ever is: http://journals.plos.org/plosmedicine/article?id=10.1371/journal.pmed.0020124 http://journals.plos.org/plosmedicine/article?id=10.1371/jou...
