The Interesting Times podcast is back with a new episode featuring a discussion with Prof. Lydia Wilkes of Auburn University and Prof. Ira Allen of Northern Arizona University. We use the recent cases of data manipulation by Harvard professor Francesca Gino as a point of entry to explore much wider (and more important) issues tied to how ‘knowledge’ about society is produced.
As promised in the show, here is a link to the blog Data Colada where several experts in the field of quantitative analysis point to extremely convincing evidence that a series of studies co-authored by Gino demonstrate clear instances of data manipulation.1 It is interesting and not technically overwhelming, so please check it out if you want to dig into to the numbers a little bit further.
As always, thanks for supporting The Interesting Times! Please subscribe if you have not, and pass it along to anyone who you think may be interested in the work we do.

It is important to note, that none of Gino’s co-authors have been implicated in any wrong-doing.
