I feel like this will lead to even more scientific illiteracy. People who have taken one stats course heavily overestimate how big a sample size actually has to be to be representative.
There are certainly ranges of acceptable sample size for power, but if I’m hunting for a GWAS the range is wild (1500 to 2+ million) and that REALLY matters.
I was gonna comment some joke about "Im a game dev, I've never written a paper with statistics in it in my life"
But then I realised I have. I wrote a report in uni about making an astronomy edutainment game and I took a survey of about 160+ year 5s. So yeah, put the sample size in the abstract.

(only other "paper" i've written was about how many stars are in a faraway galaxy)
I should unshelf this project, but I have a lot of others I want to do first.
And then send for peer review.
Data wrong? Too late!
