    Just read 'Bad Science' by Ben Goldberg. Every medical doctor, social scientist and climate scientist should be required to pass a test based on this book before being admitted to the higher echelons of wisdom. The 'publish or perish' ethic should be modified and open source data should be mandated

    The reproducibility crisis is a significant concern that challenges the credibility and progress of science. Factors contributing to this issue include inadequate sample sizes, publication bias favoring positive results, and lack of transparency in data and methodologies. In fields such as psychology, medicine, and biology, replication studies often fail to confirm original findings, raising questions about the reliability of published research.
    Addressing this requires a cultural shift within the scientific community. Initiatives promoting open science such as preregistration of studies, sharing raw data, and publishing negative results can improve transparency and accountability. Additionally, funding and incentives should prioritize rigor and reproducibility over groundbreaking claims that might not hold under scrutiny.
    Beyond reproducibility, other systemic issues also merit attention. These include the overemphasis on impact factors, which can drive researchers to prioritize quantity over quality, and inequities in funding distribution, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Tackling these challenges will strengthen the foundation of science, fostering innovation and trust in its outcomes.

      To sum it up: the core cause of all these issues are all societal in nature, not stemming from the actual methodological part of the scientific method and it's processes as exhibited in civilization. As such, a societal (as you put it 'cultural') change is required. It's also indicative that within several scientific disciplines a paradigmatic shift is looming as well. I agree. The issue is deep and jarring.

      Addressing this requires not just a cultural shift within the scientific community, it requires a new FUNDING model as well as the removal of wokism which belittles merit.

    That´s exactly what Dr. Sabine Hossenfelder says in her brilliant book "Lost in Math", published 2018. Recently she was attacked on YT by the ridiculous clown Dave Farina for her criticism. Happy to find, she´s confirmed here.

      She keeps astounding me with her critical nature. She's even made some really beautiful critique of her own assumptions recently and they really show that she's willing to move forward but not if it's over the edge of reason. She's the only one championing rigorous academic disclosure in science on YT

      Yes, that's right. The institute could make a significant contribution to mitigating growing inequality in our world (access to good quality information in this case) by publishing it's content without a pay-wall, but for some reason chooses not to. It's a pity, really.

      They certainly don't believe in getting the information out to a diverse audience. There is no equity in that. And we are certainly not included. The IAI is anti-DEI!

    Looks like this is a an issue for Fields that are barely science, psychology, economics etc.
    I doubt scientists working for an F1 team have any problems when testing new components.
