    Richard Lewontin, Richard C Lewontin et al.ARTICLECapitalism Nature Socialism2000Cited by: 1

    Although it is often claimed that statistical techniques are ways of letting the objective data speak for themselves, in both the contrast and correlational modes of statistical inference, all the real work is done by the a priori decisions imported into the analysis—which categories are to be used to create contrasting populations, which categories are to be measured, which categories are to be held constant while others are compared, and which …
