> "the Florida effect"
This 1996 study by John Bargh, using only 30 psychology undergraduates as test subjects, is now more known as the prime example of bad psychology, done with too small sample size and dubious statistical methods. This study is at the very center of the replication crisis in psychology. That the conference presenter has not followed at all what has happened in psychology in the past 8 years, erodes the scientific credibility of the presentation.
