One Swallow Doesn't Make a Summer - A Note

Mitesh Kataria ()

No 2013-030, Jena Economics Research Papers from Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena

Abstract: Maniadis et al. (2013) present a theoretical framework that aims at providing insights into the mechanics of proper inference. They suggest that a decision about whether to call an experimental finding noteworthy, or deserving of great attention, should be based on the calculated post-study probability. Although I in large agree with most points in Maniadis et al. (2013), this note raises some important caveats.
