Getting ready to resubmit a paper with some #overlyhonestmethods, including (paraphrased):

We could not do further tests on our rare patient because he moved across the country and doesn't want to do more studies.

(1/3)
We did not do that particular lesion analysis because no one in the lab knows how to.

(2/3)
The patients did different neuropsych tests because different hospitals do different things.

En el 2000, un grupo de estudiantes de doctorado decidieron crear un grupo llamando "overly honest methods" para extender la idea de una ciencia honesta. Prometieron que dirían abiertamente la realidad de lo que habían hecho en sus defensas de tesis doctoral. Tal fue el revuelo->
Que crearon un blog (ya eliminado, que yo sepa). Los primeros comentarios que dejaron fueron los que presentaron en sus defensas de tesis, congresos, exposiciones en clase, etc.

Aquí os dejo algunos de ellos, par que nos hagan pensar en una ciencia "onesta" y respetuosa.
“Los experimentos se repitieron una sola vez porque el investigador principal estaba en una conferencia y, para ser sinceros, esa semana no trabajó ni Dios en el laboratorio.”

Science is convincing a frog to jump by pretending to eat it ...then getting a frog up the nose for your troubles.

Not quite #fieldworkfail, possibly #overlyhonestmethods, unmistakably perfect whatever the tag.
