- Title
Biases in Evaluating Research: Are They All Bad?
- Authors
Enkin, Murray W.
- Abstract
The author reflects on the issue of evaluating researches and the biases that come to it. He argues that despite scientific objectivity, there is always a bias in clinical researches. He says that he is not ashamed of being biased and that there are advantages in them. He mentioned that results funded by industries tend to favor the intervention tested very often when compared to independently funded experiments.
