SCIENTIFIC PAPER RULE OF THUMB
A lot of papers are published. A lot of very bad papers are published. If you are aware of a paper and you are not a researcher in the field producing the paper, the chance that a paper is absolute nonsense, or worse, propaganda, approches one hundred percent. The chance that anything in psychology instead of cognitive science, or social science instead of behavioral economics, or political science rather than macro economics is nonsense or worse, propaganda, approaches absolute certainty – even if you’re in the field.
