The Control Group Is Out of Control (2014)

This article critiques the scientific method and meta-analysis in the context of parapsychology, specifically the study of psychic phenomena. The author, Scott Alexander, argues that the scientific method is not infallible and that meta-analyses can be flawed. He also critiques the study of parapsychology, citing the lack of conclusive evidence for psychic phenomena. The article is a critique of the scientific method and its application to parapsychology, rather than a straightforward critique of parapsychology itself.
