I really appreciate the sober tone of this article. When attention and money hungry influencers misrepresent fundamental things in my line of research, I get a lot more angry. In any case, the author has a bunch of interesting papers in good journals, and they seem credible [1]. For example, her recommendations for cross-cultural (developmental psychological) research in [2] are really good: > (1) Draw research questions from evolutionary plausible theoretical frameworks , considering both the ultimate and proximate levels of analysis > (2) When possible, use formal modeling to clarify assumptions and generate predictions > (3) Create standardized, reproducible protocols with extensive comprehension checks and low reliance on formal education and numeracy > (4) Seek out interdisciplinary collaborators from anthropology, psychology, economics, and related fields > (5) Engage in hypothesis-driven choice of populations based on the variables that are most relevant to the research question, even if they lead to so-called “inconvenient samples” > (6) Where possible, examine psychological variation at multiple levels of analysis, identifying natural experiments to test key predictions > (7) Provide information about and situate the work within the broader ethnographic context of the society, drawing upon observational data where possible [1] https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=0r5bdCYAAAAJ&hl=de&oi=ao https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=0r5bdCYAAAAJ&hl=de...
