Episode Description from the Publisher

Commenters convinced me I made a subtle mis-step in my framing of Psychology Research Is Mostly Fine.

Instead of emphasizing the difference between social priming and other subfields, I should have emphasized the difference between settled science and novel research. Here are some of my favorite psychology findings: https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/the-beauty-of-settled-science
