Science waarschuwt lezers voor Stapel

Het bekende wetenschappelijke tijdschrift Science heeft een redactioneel commentaar verspreid waarin ze de lezers waarschuwt voor onjuiste informatie in eerdere publicaties van Stapel in het magazine.

“The Report “Coping with chaos: How disordered contexts promote stereotyping and discrimination” by D. A. Stapel and S. Lindenberg (1) reported the effects of the physical environment on human stereotyping and discriminatory behavior. On 31 October 2011, Tilburg University held a press conference to announce interim findings of its investigation into possible data fraud in the body of work published by Stapel. The official report in Dutch indicates that the extent of the fraud by Stapel is substantial. Pending further details of the Tilburg Committee’s findings, Science is publishing this Editorial Expression of Concern to alert our readers that serious concerns have been raised about the validity of the findings in this Report”, zo schrijft Science-hoofdredacteur Bruce Alberts.
