"Replication Crisis, Perspectival Realism, and the Malleability of Statistics".

Abstrakt: Inconsistent and unstable results have become a characteristic feature of contemporary empirical sciences. The results of data-intensive disciplines (such as econometrics, epidemiology, (clinical) medicine and psychology) lack stability. The presence of inconsistent results has a detrimental effect on theoretical discourse, policy guidance, and clinical practice. My purpose is twofold. First, I argue that alternative methodological commitments producing inconsistent statistical results are often plausible in the sense that one cannot appraise inconsistent studies based on their methodological quality. Second, I support a perspectival view on inconsistent statistical models and argue that inconsistent results are relevant for different clinical or policy decisions. My argument proceeds with analyzing examples of some recent medical studies.
