Not if you actually follow Bert's advice. and your outward hostility to a field you
obviously don't understand reveals a regrettable level of ignorance.
I didn't see any hostility to any field. Bert, like many of us, objects to people blithely and arrogantly applying possibly deep statistical techniques of which they apparently have little understanding, with an attitude of "Oh, it's just statistics. How hard can it be?" I don't think anyone who knows anything about anything would classify Bert as ignorant. By the way, my research is Anthropology despite my job title.
OK. Your job title is misleading. Let's say "in order to avoid producing yet more irreproducible anthropological research" then. cheers, Rolf Turner -- Technical Editor ANZJS Department of Statistics University of Auckland Phone: +64-9-373-7599 ext. 88276
