THE RULES
1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 56.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next seven* sentences in your journal along with these instructions.
*yeah... I'm not typing that many. how about 2 instead?
5. Don't dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.
6. Tag five other people to do the same.
"Recent scandals in the biological sciences and a survey of scientists found a significant number anonymously admitting to having committed some form of scientific misbehavior (Singer, 2005) indicate that dishonest reporting might be more widespread that previously thought. We want to emphasize that the presentation of data without fraud, distortion, or omission; disclosure of the research's limitations; and a willingness to admit when hypotheses are not supported by the data are important responsibilities to colleagues and the general public."
Tag, you're it.
