Our (old) paper follows on from David Firth journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.… and we built some teaching resources restore.ac.uk/Longitudinal/q…
It is a mystery. There are a few proselytizers @profbigvern . Whenever as a referee I've suggested their use it has been ignored. Makes me wonder whether people actually understand what comparisons they are actually making.
New paper osf.io/preprints/metaarxiv/c… A collaboration with my @uoessps colleagues

@Edinburgh_Tea I understand that there are 162 co-authors but we are still behind the Large Hadron Collider

• 73 teams tested same hypothesis with same data
• Outcomes varied widely
• Each workflow unique
• We attempt to explain outcomes from decisions, but no easy answer

ALT Fig. 1 Substantial variation in findings from 73 teams testing the same hypothesis with the same data The distribution of estimated average marginal effects (AME) across all converged models (N = 1,253) includes results that are negative (yellow, and in the direction predicted by the given hypothesis the teams were testing), not different from zero (grey) or positive (blue), using a 95% confidence interval. AME are XY-standardized. Y-axis contains two breaks at +/-0.05. Numbers inside circles represent the percentage of the distribution of each outcome inversely weighted by the number of models per team.
