Just asking.
- Isinlor 5y agoThe questions are fairly complex, so I could easily see that people better at reading comprehension, and people who generally read more, will answer better. Additionally, the correct answers maybe compromised, since social psychology is one of the worst offenders in the replication crisis.
- Borrible 5y agoThrough self-replication stabilized replication crisis. Now that sounds fun. I smell infinite regress there. Somebody should feed it.
- knaik94 5y agoThis study isn't about the relationship in both directions. It's only really saying that lonely people might have a implicitly better understanding on the bigger trends that will face society. A total of six studies were examined. https://econtent.hogrefe.com/doi/full/10.1027/1864-9335/a000332 https://econtent.hogrefe.com/doi/full/10.1027/1864-9335/a000...
- Borrible 5y agoThanks for pointing out. And self-reported feelings of sadness and lonelyness could also be interpreted as symptoms of a more or less mild depression. Which makes this study prone to the same problems of the hypothesis of depressive realism. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depressive_realism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depressive_realism
