He has a datamethods forum where it looks like its been mentioned quite a few times, discourse.datamethods.org/search?q=par.... He's also on bluesky and pretty responsive to questions.

I learned of a new type of effect the other day: Rashomon effect (i.e., the higher the diversity of models that can near equally well explain the same data) then the more likely it becomes that simple models will be included among them. #datamethods #statistics #statssky

decided to tell all of you that I have a problem and it is forgetting that i do not have three brains and nine arms. i sat down to do some regression btw, thats why i went to datamethods because there was some thing about sample selection that i read last week i wanted to review. this has been […]

got something delivered ordered food started reading a datamethods thread about stats and AI jumped to a paper that was linked, jumped back to a textbook that was linked, wrote up a project brief, read 30% of that article that id opened, checked mastodon, went back to the article and did some […]

I asked Grok to “Summarize REMAP CAP using two DAGs”

But Grok only looks at work I did on X and discussions at datamethods and provides a
Well organized summary. Grok is a sophisticated text review parrot. Which is nice.

No one will discuss or retweet PettyBone RCT mimics. But your generation needs the courage to break out. Study and teach Pearl’s symbolic causal modeling

After two years of trying to avoid this discussion, I just necroed *that thread* on datamethods (discourse.datamethods.org/t/should-one...) in order to share an excellent preprint by philosopher Veli-Pekka Parkkinen (philsci-archive.pitt.edu/24785/1/efme...)
Should one derive risk difference from the odds ratio?
I urge all readers of this thread to read the excellent new preprint from philosopher of science Veli-Pekka Parkkinen, “Choice of effect measure, extrapolation, and decision-making in patient care an...

Ehud, thanks for responding to an older post—I also saw your comment on Datamethods. It seems to me that as long as one conducts an in-depth examination of the propensity score distribution (even when using matching), the method can still be valid and useful.
February 13, 2025 at 3:09 PM
First, note Andrew's post discusses propensity score matching while Solomon uses covariate-distance-based matching.
but more generally, Frank (and by extension Datamethods) quite opposes matching/weighting-based techniques. His argument is about data inefficiency and inflated standard errors,

HT @f2harrell.bsky.social for good discussion at Datamethods
February 9, 2025 at 2:56 PM
I consider Dr. Palmer a hero for presenting such a well reasoned debate at datamethods. His points were much needed and have been very well received.

It takes courage to debate the fundamental methodology. Almost no one will. It would be great if more thought leaders enter the discussion.

This has been quite a lively debate on trials in intensive care. I don't think the "pathological science" chat is productive, but I'm always up for a healthy scientific debate. Thoughts on datamethods: discourse.datamethods.org/t/the-petty-... @statsepi.bsky.social @load-dependent.bsky.social

But thanks for your thoughts. Probably good to end the discussion unless you have a comments about CCM science.

Come over to datamethods. There is no provocation there. It’s not needed. It’s all science.
January 25, 2025 at 9:46 PM
Your point is discussed at datamethods. Please bring your excellent thoughts there.

The mRCT are generally negative or reversed also and this is predicted in PettyBone RCT due to greater dilution of a fortuitously responsive disease in the disease mix captured by the triage thresholds in the mRCT

I was thinking about the best way to mitigate bias when bootstraping confidence intervals (before or after imputation) over the weekend and found this excellent post on #datamethods #statssky

Extremely thorough response by @Isabella_Ghement

Great, so pls send colleagues to Datamethods to discuss with statisticians. Why wait? Let’s end the PettyBone paradigm

ARDS & sepsis will remain as cognitive constructs for medED & severity measures

Common Pathways will be discovered by starting with disease & adding, not starting with Delphi.

This is your time. Petty & Bone’s ideas were from their generation.

Start with real inquiry. Send your colleagues to datamethods to discuss & debate. Those are world class statisticians who are not in-the-box at datamethods

Science only self-corrects if the youth correct their mentors mistakes

Thanks for coming to datamethods.

See if you can find colleagues or mentor who will publicly defend the PettyBoneRCT. I have not found anyone yet. However if you do, please send them as we would welcome their input. In the comments I will put the link to send them.
