my sister ended up doing some summer research work at a lab like this. they were nominally in the kinesiology department, but the PI had discovered that, following a manipulation, it was much easier to get a significant result if the "task" was a battery of psychometric tests.

I think we should be much more skeptical of all studies that take this form

this was ~2022, post replication crisis. you'd talk to the grad students in these labs and they all knew, on some level, that they were doing something "wrong". I would tell them–and my sister– "you are doing a bad thing. I think this is destroying the world".

everyone would get a little sheepish about it but that was about it. I could never change anyones behaviour and I still helped my sister make nice ggplots or whatever and congratulated her on getting published because I'm a nice brother.

Never ask a woman her age, a man his salary or a Cambridge machine learning department why waste taxpayer funds on frameworks that neither work nor scale like on Gaussian processes or Bayesian deep nets.

Of course I’m being productive, I’m researching patterns of state formation by dividing the world into hexagonal cells with defined geographical features and resource availability, then simulating inter-polity conflicts to explain tendencies towards polycentrism and consolidation
