questionable research practices
1) harking
2) p-hacking
3) cherry picking
4) selective omission
5) data snooping
harking
hypothesizing after results are known
becomes questionable if the adapted hypothesis is presented as the og hypothesis without referring to it as adapted
p hacking
data manipulation or selection that makes the p-value more favorable
transforming scores or selecting only certain items or removing certain experimental conditions
this is questionable when this is manipulated to achieve a more favorable result
cherry picking
picking only results that are favorable
selective omission
omission of contradictory results or valuable results that do not align with the objective and could potentially influence the final outcome
data snooping
collection of data exactly until results show a favorable p-value, problematic because the choice to stop is arbitrary
