Default Re: Are most scientific studies screwed up?

[ QUOTE ]
This is very true, but mostly in the soft "sciences". The more papers I read from that field, the more I realize that it's a sad joke. Apart from screwed up methodology, so many conclusions are reached that step way beyond the bounds of the data and fail to look at other explanations/scenarios.

Most of the hard sciences, at least where based on data, are quite reliable IMO.

Read more medical journals, they really are pretty awful. In my limited experience anyway.
