Apparently ScienceDaily is so hard up for content that this thinly-disguised press release counts as a “science” story.
Let’s list a few of the breathtakingly unscientific assumptions here:
- Two people are enough subjects for a “study”
- Five interviews provide enough data to analyze for a “study”
- “Language of the non-powerful” can be identified without bias
- Deciding ahead of time what are “female” and “male” language patterns won’t bias the “study”
- People can have a gender
- Hillary has a sex
Scientific study or sophomore High School homework assigment? You decide.
