The role of meta-analysis and preregistration in assessing the evidence for cleansing effects
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 44 (2021)
Abstract
Lee and Schwarz interpret meta-analytic research and replication studies as providing evidence for the robustness of cleansing effects. We argue that the currently available evidence is unconvincing because publication bias and the opportunistic use of researcher degrees of freedom appear to have inflated meta-analytic effect size estimates, and preregistered replications failed to find any evidence of cleansing effects.My notes
