Admittedly this isn’t my field. But that sounds a lot like “I only show my work to people who will validate it,” does it not?
- timmb 3y agoI disagree, I think it means “my actions have demonstrated that I’m not trying to cover anything up”
- munch117 3y agoThat's my interpretation as well. It doesn't put him in a much better light, though. It's like he's so incompetent that he didn't even realise that there was something that needed covering up.
- anjc 3y agoThere wasn't something that needed covering up. If he'd reported the methodology in the paper there would have been no issues. It's likely that this was omitted from the paper as an oversight; such imputation likely wouldn't have affected the outcome of peer review.
