there is no statistical difference in skull sizes.Now, every Stat 101 course proves that the appropriate statistic to be used in comparing means is the standard error. That is unequivocal; it is a strict mathematical proof.And Gould routinely used statistics in his own research on shell fish.So, either Gould's own research is by and large nonsense, or he lied on pp. 109-110.Gould's academic and scientific career is contemptible. |
