Abstract
- In a widely cited article, Ioannidis argued that most published research findings are false; particularly discovery research involving massive testing, genomics being a typical example. However, his argument ignores adjustment for multiple testing and thus should be taken with a large grain of salt. This is a potential example for statistics courses that concentrate on problem formulation.
