Working Papers from eSocialSciences

Abstract: Disagreements and confrontations are common among social scientists regarding conclusions obtained by two researchers on a similar premise. Such disagreements highlight two critical aspects of research i.e. the actual statistical analysis and the manner in which research findings are disseminated. This leads to a consideration of two levels of ethics while doing statistics namely, the study design and the action taken with the results.
