https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0924857920300996
Why does the principal author (who still claims the research is valid) look so familiar?
Coincidence of course. 🤷♂️

I find it fascinating and somewhat bizarre when an article about how 'songwriting has changed' refers to songs written by one person - 'songwriting has changed' has become a euphemism for 'Max Martin is popular'.

@Wtime90 @amirnathoo I wholeheartedly agree with you about the lack of reliable #homeschool data. I've been apart of the community since 1999, so I've read my fair share. It's a bit of a hobby of mine to call out #BadResearch, especially as it relates to homeschooling. My concern is more about #EdPolicy makers believing what they read without really understanding how biased most of the data is.
