Biased data is better than fake data!Not sure about this. Faked data might at least be
close to the real result. All depends on what it is
to be used for. Certainly, if it's biased, these factors
have to be explained - and thus it's worthless; if they
are not explained, then no, it is probably worse to
use biased data.
You're assuming that biased data won't give a result that's near to the real result! There may be other variables that haven't been eliminated that cause the data to express what appears to be the truth of the hypothesis. This doesn't mean that the hypothesis wouldn't still be true if the other variables were eliminated. Say someone has the hypothesis that it hasn't been raining. They do an experiment: looking at the ground outside to see if it's wet. It's not wet. They conclude that it hasn't rained. In actuality, the ground would have been wet because someone had a water fight outside half an hour earlier, but then the sun dried it out really quickly. So, no, it didn't rain, but the person doing the experiment had failed to take into account that the reliability of their results had been compromised by other variables.
IQ distribution follows a bell shaped curve the data in this thread looks like a Mensa convention. Aspergers if you consider no learning delays a criteria then one would expect a half bell shape curve topping off at 100 and dropping very low in the upper range. And a self reported value like IQ (and with different tests)has a margin of error
that is unacceptable.
I think the notion that aspie are very honest comes from the fact they tend to not know how to tell white lies and say things without proper social cognitive processing. So they
appear brutally honest at first impression. But does that translate to a character that
is more honest? No it does not. Oh in the case of online they have such massive time for
pre-processing they could say absolutely anything equally well.
Another thing labeled as honesty in aspies is pedantic attention to rules. So basically one level of aspie gives lip service to pedantic detail of not providing false data when another aspies is even more dedicated to pedantic detail can see the entire process (this data collection) is so flawed that it is closer to total garbage than useful data.
