Fredrickson-Losada “positivity ratio” paper partially withdrawn

The Retraction Watch website[1] reports on a partial withdrawal of one of the author's most famous papers, with citations to peer-reviewed critiques of the paper. -- WeijiBaikeBianji (talk, how I edit) 03:27, 20 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

New source

The British amateur who debunked the mathematics of happiness

This is an interesting read. -- WeijiBaikeBianji (talk, how I edit) 02:16, 23 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

[Brown et al] have had their follow up paper accepted by "American Psychologist" and it is rather interesting. -Roxy the dog (resonate) 13:01, 28 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Published yesterday. My guess is there will be backtracking, the Fredrickson co-author response demonstrates a singular lack of understanding of their own work. It's rather sad actually. -Roxy the dog™ (resonate) 10:33, 26 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting - this https://getpocket.com/explore/item/nick-brown-smelled-bull?utm_source=pocket-newtab was in my Firefox homepage feed today. IMO, there definitely needs to be a Criticism and/or Academic Integrity section on this page.E8 (talk) 23:06, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
