It’s the Trix rabbit all over again

When reporting on these kinds of claims, the media should ask:
1. Is this a one-off study or a replicated finding? 2. Is it cherry-picked or consistent? 3. Was the study big enough to be reliable? 4. Did it employ robust statistical methods? 5. How big is the effect size? (If there’s a statistical association, does it amount to a big risk or a small one?) 6. Is there any evidence for a causal link or is it just a correlation? 7. Could the correlation reflect some confounding factor? 8. How does this supposed factor sit in the context of other factors (especially genetic risk for autism, which is very highly heritable)?

Probably should’ve posted the Ai statement separately - not sure how it displays with the rest. It’s not so different from what I originally posted, but prefer people get the final version. Have at it & hope it’s useful to you in your classes. All on my site here spinweaveandcut.com/fall-2025-sy...
a snippet of a mini-comic, at top - straight line stretches from point A to B. Immediately below, same dot at A, then becomes a curving, meandering line that winds through the page and ends at a point with rays and a question mark emanating from it. Text reads: "Nothing can do this for you - for that robs you of experience and conflates answers with learning. Rather, it's all the decisions you make along the way, the mistakes, struggles, and surprises! These pathways you create - this is learning.
