5-Year Project: 2011 Review

By: Clau González on 11/28/2014 at 11:21 AM Categories:

This year, I reviewed 327 articles. I liked 54 of them. That is more than usual, but during this year there were some pretty awesome meta-analyses and other articles describing the process of theory-building. Which, in my book, is the equivalent of finding gold at the end of the rainbow. Only better. Because what would I do with gold? Great articles, on the other hand, are like oxygen for PhD students. And we can all agree oxygen is more important than gold.

Here are the articles:
