For a summary of the paper and the full discussion, see this thread: nitter.gq/ensaracem/status/19883…
Our new paper is out in @Theory_Society: “Why I declare a conflict of interest and you should not.” We examine whether the structural pressure to publish should itself be understood as a conflict of interest—and what that means for research culture. 🔗 doi.org/10.1007/s11186-025-0…
