How exactly is research backed by data racist? https://openpsych.net/files/papers/Carl_2016b.pdf


Before even looking at the article I must ask: is simple counterexample of using data correctly important argument? Or should we consider the whole body of work.

Generally speaking must look the relevance and validity of data and methods used in each case. Even if it's correct it can be collected and used to argue intentionally misleading way. "Using data" is not enough for science.


You answered wrong question. klohto never asked you whether using data is enough for science. he was asking how is this racist. Do you mean if it is not enough for science then it must be racist?
