Ehhhh, much like children it really depends on the dog.

I have a counter surfer at home, and we tried the negative reinforcement, time-outs, loud noises ect, and all it did was give her food aggression where she never had any before.

Training leave it and removing opportunities for her to steal worked out way better long term. Now if she finds a chicken bone or something on a walk I can just take it from her when before when she’d do her damndest to hide it.

> Speaking from experience when I was a kid, being spoken to in this manner always felt belittling.

I think a lot of it comes down to how people usually communicate with the kid.

Like I can’t possibly imagine my Dad saying “Looks like we got some big feelings here, want to talk about it?” It sounds so silly and patronizing.

But a “Boona, I can’t help unless you tell me what’s wrong” is completely normal to my ears.

For all intents and purposes they’re the same question though. I think kids just just know us more than we give them credit for, so if you pull out the “Journal approved parenting voice” when that’s not how you talk normally they’ll react accordingly.

I think you got downvotes because you misunderstood what people were taking umbrage with in the first example.

It’s not that birth time can never have real effects. It’s that if you keep rolling a die long enough, eventually you’ll hit a “statically unlikely” event like rolling 4 fives in a row or hitting 1 2 3 4 in order.

Extraneous sub group analysis are like rolling the die again. Say you’re searching for a p-value of .05 with a confidence interval of 95%. That means 19 out of 20 times it’s indicative of a real relationship and 1 out of 20 times it was due to random chance.

If you do a bunch of extraneous sub group analyses like the reviewer wanted, you’re banking on the statistical likelihood that eventually you’ll get the result you want even if it’s not a real relationship.

Many local municipalities actually require the developer to include a new HOA as part of the permitting process for new development.

This is because small local governments are often too cash poor to foot the additional road maintenance, utilities, etc so they want to offload the cost to the developers/ the developers customers.

This is an interesting recent addition to the Wikipedia article.

From the summary:

> In 2019 and 2023, historians of psychiatry published evidence that the experiment is a hoax.

And following the link:

> In The Great Pretender, a 2019 book on Rosenhan, author Susannah Cahalan questions the veracity and validity of the Rosenhan experiment. Examining documents left behind by Rosenhan after his death, Cahalan finds apparent distortion in the Science article: inconsistent data, misleading descriptions, and inaccurate or fabricated quotations from psychiatric records. Moreover, despite an extensive search, she is only able to identify two of the eight pseudopatients: Rosenhan himself, and a graduate student whose testimony is allegedly inconsistent with Rosenhan's description in the article. In light of Rosenhan's seeming willingness to bend the truth in other ways regarding the experiment, Cahalan questions whether some or all of the six other pseudopatients might have been simply invented by Rosenhan.[11][12] In February 2023, Andrew Scull of the University of California at San Diego published an article[13] in the peer-reviewed journal History of Psychiatry in support of Cahalan's allegations.

Still - it’s scary how many rights you lose once you’ve been declared unwell. We might just want to start using more recent evidence since that experiment has come under question.
