Obstetric complications, psychiatric history, lower IQ linked to early-onset psychosis

Data is so hard, from what I learn it’s a collection of facts, statistics on the other hand tries to prevent you from reaching wrong conclusions. Although since I heard about p-value hacking I try to be very cautious about statistics, we can all get wrong conclusions just cuz some scientist really needed to publish, so reviews are highly appreciated in scientific field. To me the best attitude is to not take anything for granted, statistics included.

Btw, I’m not saying that they reach wrong conclusions, I’m just trying to say they reach their conclusions with their data, or replicated another study and got the same conclusions. In my opinion we should always be open to new variables that can influence our study, that’s all.

Here’s a video explaining p value hacking :slightly_smiling_face:
