[QUOTE="ianf0ster, post: 2186450, member: 506169"] My friend is an ordinary guy, no scientific interests and no further education. Supplying him with links to studies would be pointless since he has no background knowledge to enable him to understand either of the following crucial components: Quality (construction, appropriate time period, appropriate subjects, statistical adjusting for known effects etc.) or Bias (either from funding or just publication bias). With respect, I suggest that would also be the case for the majority of new members. I agree that such details are important but given that they are 'beyond scope for most', I feel that such 'knowledge' should be held in a separate thread and that thread made 'sticky' so that people like me don't have to keep a track of the synopses, attributes and locations of all the information we process during our investigations and then have to list it all on a significant number of our posts.
