I don't like using the term "replication crisis" for social sciences because it implies a possible non-crisis state, but there isn't one. Every study in every social field is either unrepeatable due to being subjective, or, rarely, something so blindingly obvious one can't fathom why anyone would bother writing it. (I know, grants, shut up.) Shit like "people in chronic pain are more likely to be unhappy". Wowzah, stop the fucking presses!
I completely agree. "social sciences" are not sciences and should never be allowed to be called a science without brutal ridicule and mocking. it's all self-reporting studies and abuses of statistical analysis. there is nothing scientific about it. furthermore, the field is full of women, who as we all know are largely incapable of performing science due to their instinctive and cognitive facilities.

It's all disciplines though, not exclusively social sciences.
They're both a problem.

No, it's pretty much social studies.
Most medical studies just reflect social conditions.
No my dude, it really is affecting all areas of science.
I'm not paying to read that :(
Also 99% of "scientists" agree, whomever funded them was correct.
Thanks. I’ll keep this article next time my cousins try to make some point. I’m always very skeptical when I see “studies” saying it’s a good thing.
I'm shocked if anything can be replicated. I'm shocked if anyone tries.
