Would that be reliable? As you make cautionary tales of researcher biases. How do you know that looking through the garbage bin to find the good looking nitbits is not just cherry picking the few of the thousands that seemed to work without serious problems? But does that mean it is a viable theory still, or that you did a good job in noise mining for false positives?

This is good news! Because of Inzlicht's judgment of TMT, I put a cautionary note at the beginning of my article on the subject, but now I think I can take it off. Should I? And I can go on believing that a man will sit further away from a woman if he has seen one of her tampons, a weird TMT finding that I discuss. https://open.substack.com/pub/eclecticinquiries/p/terror-and-human-weirdness?r=4952v2&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false
