But somehow it's the physicists, chemists, and mathematicians who are doing something about it, not the social scientists (or whatever the term is).

- cess11 2y agoThat's just gibberish. Physics, medicine and so on are full of fraud. It's rather common in academia. The social sciences can tell you why, math can't.
- dgfitz 2y agoI think it's sprinkled all over this thread. Social science can tell you why, absolutely. But then can't replicate it.
- boxed 2y agoThe "why" is utterly irrelevant if you can't then do anything about it. It also seems like some of that "why" research was fraud too, so they couldn't even answer that. Meanwhile the hard science guys are forcing retractions.
