Bravo more light, less heat! In the marketing world what you describe is called, “Spreading the FUD” Fear, Uncertainty and Death. One of the most prominent and widely discussed research studies criticizing the way scientific studies are done is the 2005 paper by John Ioannidis titled "Why Most Published Research Findings Are False".
I am glad to have found a colleague. Much of the incomplete or false information still follows old myths and theories upended by past 25 yrs of behavioral genetic research. I was chief resident and spent the day with Stella Chess when she toured announcing the ten year results of the N Y Longitudinal study.
The environmentalist had a tantrum. The changes in behavioral Pediatrics has been a ride.
Yes! you’re spot on about what I’m trying to do here.
I think there is a lot of fear-based messaging around parenting. A lot of research gets translated into headlines that overstate certainty, inflate effects, or turn small average associations into broad claims about parenting.
What I’m trying to do is give a more accurate picture of what studies actually show, which is often much more reassuring than what we’re led to believe.
