No raw data, no science: another possible source of the reproducibility crisis

An editor asked 41 teams to provide data because their manuscripts looked too clean.
HALF of the teams withdrew their papers. 1 out of 41 teams provided full data. https://molecularbrain.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13041-020-0552-2

Genetic ancestry and social race are nearly interchangeable.

New paper by Emil Kirkegaard which is currently in review. I'm very excited about this one.

Psychosocial Well-Being in Children of Same-Sex Parents: A Longitudinal Analysis of Familial Transitions

Using longitudinal samples with random samples, Potter and Potter (2017) found that 57% of heterosexual parents were still together from the time their kid was in kindergarten to 5th grade. For same sex parents it was 31%, a 26% difference.

if Kyle Rittenhouse was black, he would still not have been found guilty. A meta-analysis shows that white jurors had no bias against black defendants, but blacks had a pro-black or anti-white bias.

In general people find a lot of meaning in family and children, but women do so to an even greater extent than men.

Meta-analyses are better than your average single study, but the effect sizes they produce are still roughly 3 times larger than those produced by well powered pre-registered studies

Comparing meta-analyses and preregistered multiple-laboratory replication projects. So yea, they are still pretty problematic and often not great evidence.

Sariaslan et al. (2018)

This study looked at a total of 526, 167 people in Sweden who were born between 1989-1993. Unsurprisingly, children of parents of the lowest income percentile were more likely to be convicted of a violent crime when compared to those born in a high-income percentile. However, the OR went below 1 after family variables were adjusted for. Showing poverty to have no causal correlation with crime.

Does reality have a left-wing bias?

Interesting article about rapes done by allied soldiers during ww2
"Of the mere 152 men who were tried for rape, 139 of the defendants were ‘coloured’"

We may need help with finding sources for an ultimate source doc library. Message Howard the Duck (Elder Quack) @eldquaw about finding sources for this distribution center. I personally am very busy, balancing article editing and finding sources is a multi-person job. I will always do my best to find sources to post here, staying persistent is our only option. When you find something, message me. Together we will win for our European family and that’s because truth is on our side. -Howard the Duck

A note about this study: the authors concluded that one cannot determine behavior from one’s face alone, but logic tells us that a gradient of behavior could be determined. If you walk up to somebody you may not be able to determine that they are a thief or an accountant. But if you new general trends from a certain demographic you could make a judgment call on the cusp of what most likely they could do.
