Hear me out, psychologists are the OG vibe coders. Picking factors by squinting at scree plots, naming latent variables on instinct, fitting SEMs based on celestial drawings, and publishing without a care.

The number of researchers in psychology who run "fancy" statistical analyses without having a clue about what they are doing is really disturbing. The fact that editors and reviewers - the supposed experts on these matters - don't pick up on this stuff is even worse. Psychology is hopelessly broken.
