"Every X knows" is usually sign of agreeing on a conclusion based on gut feelings and without verifying if the arguments leading up to them hold water.
- avip 8y agoIs it so in this case? What it "usually" means seems irrelevant. Have you been through a diagnosis with your kids?
- vanderZwan 8y agoI think you fail to realize that the burden of proof is not on me here.
- avip 8y agoThe burden of proof falls on the one making the non trivial claim. I don’t need to prove the null hypothesis.
- Dayshine 8y agoWait, what, I'm not the GP, but: Which claim are you referring to here? 1. Your unsubstantiated claim of ADHD being overdiagnosed 2. GP's unsubstantiated claim of "Every X knows Y" The null hypothesis must be "ADHD diagnostic criteria has high specificity", because without that it's not diagnosis. What evidence do you have to demonstrate low specificity?
