    You’d be amazed at how much so-called peer reviewed academic social science research depends on:
    1. Effective samples pimpled on vast, underwater non-response error. (Most sensible respondents decline/toss their questionnaires in the trash.)

    2. Extrapolating from derivative ideas extrapolated from deeper layers of dross. Think of an entire community taking in one another’s washing.

    3. Salami-slicing ever smaller wafers off of a pre-existing idea.

    4. Samples comprising a hundred or so undergraduate students in Dogfoot University.

    5. Depth interviews, single cases and focus groups with unrepresentative samples. O Hail Qualitative Research! Let it not prevent us from extrapolating our findings to general populations.

    Good old academia. Narcissistic quacks churning out the unreadable and irrelevant for the unread.

    This is not surprising the socialists have destroyed science and anything else based on facts, logic and reason.

    The latest opinion poll here put Shorten first and Abbott third with Daylight in between.
    How many voters questioned? 1700. Not my idea of a representative sample.

    “Most sensible respondents decline/toss their questionnaires in the trash.”
    Or never get asked for their opinions in the first place. Pollsters filter out older voters with the simple question of which age bracket they fall into.

    And yet these results, like the shrinks and their findings, are presented as serious and honest.

    As they said back in the olden days, the only thing you can truly believe in a newspaper is the price on the front page.
