  1. “Statisticism refers to an overemphasis on abstract statistical principles at the expense of context-specific nuance and caveats (e.g., Boring, 1919; Brower, 1949; Proulx & Morey, 2021). Statisticism may help to explain the unthinking statistical ritualism that has been noted by some commentators (Gigerenzer, 2004, 2018; Proulx & Morey, 2021).” #statistics #stats #MultipleTesting #Statisticism
