I 202f
Experiment/Poundstone: an experiment is invalid if it was run sloppy. - The results can be true or false.
Error: E.g. expectation experiment (assuming that the experimenter unconsciously determined the result):
a) if the results are true, you cannot trust the test persons
b) if the results are wrong, there is no prejudice effect
c) if the study is valid, then the result is true, and the investigation is invalid.
Poundstone: the investigation is not valid in any case.
