Can you provide references by him or your "other scientists" or are we supposed to believe everything you say just because you made the effort to say it?

Btw, that "good point" was directed at momerath, not revo.

Good point.

I think even Dr Hyman acknowledges that "something is going on here", since he, with other scientists, have ruled out other 'fraud, file drawer problem etc' explanations. So the state of the matter right now is to continue to do rigorous tests to find out just 'what' is going on, being careful to say only what is being found out and to not say what isn't being found out.

If you give no detailed explanation of how their experiments are statistically "very questionable", you are just arguing from your own authority. I hope you would not wish people to take your word for it any more than the speaker in this video.

My work requires frequent use of advanced, robust statistical methods.The "experiments" and their design presented in this video are very questionable, although not immediately apparent to someone who doesn't have a very thorough knowledge of statistics and how you can actually get very inconclusive results by designing an experiment improperly.

Awesome! I'm gonna start developing my psychic powers right away. If this talk proves one thing, it's that Google employs a huge number of those annoying kids who are always trying to demonstrate how smart they are in class. These are the sort who think exceedingly fast and shallow, skimming over the surface and soaking all bystanders with their sophomoric spuming.

Dude, if you want to take just one thing away from this, take the following: statistics has DEVILISH complications and is EXTREMELY slippery business. A single man (with a fixation) can NEVER be a source reliable enough when it comes to statistical results - what can and CAN NOT be said on their basis. You get a number of different statisticians to review the data (like dr. Hyman who's dealt with Radin before) and let me know if THEY become convinced there's something there and then I'll listen.

So you don't believe in the scientific method?
I suppose you think evolution is false too, and that gravity doesn't exist? |
