Validation Study

Retracted Papers Validation Study — five famous scientific retractions scored by Jürge retroactively. The question: can a multi-family AI review panel catch bad science?

Paper Author Year Issue Jürge Score
MMR–Autism Link Wakefield et al. 1998 Fraud, ethical violations 1.9
Human Embryonic Stem Cells Hwang et al. 2004 Fabricated data 3.3
STAP Cells Obokata et al. 2014 Irreproducible, manipulated images 3.73
Dishonesty Studies Ariely et al. 2012 Fabricated field data 4.86
Social Priming Studies Stapel 2004–11 Systematic fabrication 4.97

Finding: Jürge catches bad methodology — weak designs, implausible effect sizes, missing controls. It does not catch good liars. Stapel and Ariely produced methodologically coherent fraud; Wakefield's methods were transparently terrible. The correlation between score and fraud sophistication is the result, not a bug.
