Abstract

The claim has been made that it can be proven that most published findings in medical, biological, and allied sciences are false and that the reason for this can be proven and explained with a mathematical model. It has not, however, been mathematically proven that most research findings are false, and this can be proven. The model used in the proof is incoherent and has been falsified. Furthermore, advice to researchers derived from the model is misleading and distracts from more important issues in experimental standards.
