No Hawthorne effect at Hawthorne? June 9, 2009
Posted by Sverre in : Methods in political science , trackbackIs nothing holy? Must I throw out my introduction textbook in methods now? The guys over at the Freakonomics blog have dug up and reexamined the original Hawthorne data and concluded that there actually was no Hawthorne effect in the original Hawthorne study! I’m disappointed right to the very core of my post-graduate student soul. What should i believe in now?
