Science is a messy, error fraught business, which is why reproducibility is so essential. Unfortunately, that doesn't appear to be one of psychology's strong suits, according to a massive analysis published yesterday in Science.
A years-long effort to reproduce more than 100 psychology studies across three leading journals paints a pretty dismal picture. When re-tested by independent research psychologists, the conclusions of more than 60 studies on personality, relationships, learning, and memory, turned out to be far less whelming. Strongly significant findings often became weaker, while weakly significant findings became non-existent.

Sigmund Freud said that sometimes a good homoerotic fantasy was just a good homoerotic fantasy, and not a cigar, or a shoe, or a truck, or a gun, or a large comb-over, or anything else one might mistake a good homoerotic fantasy for. Oh, and the more you deny it, the more it is true. Of course, if you don't deny it, it is true any way. So basically your choice, when you attempt to take on Dragons or Shrinks.
