The NULL

The NULL "We aim to provide an engaging, abbreviated, and easy to digest portrayal of research that does not reach significance (statistical or practical)."

We believe there is great value in informing the academic community of studies that do not reach statistical significance, deviate from 'expected theory', or just don't "pan out". Our goal is to present this information in a abbreviated, engaging, and aesthetic format in our monthly Ezine. This information provides an opportunity for all members to learn and even spark discussion and debate in our open forum.

Until now!
