Without getting into snark, your very own article bolsters my point:
> The replication crisis in psychology does not extend to every line of inquiry, and just a portion of the work described in Thinking, Fast and Slow has been cast in shadows. Kahneman and Tversky’s own research, for example, turns out to be resilient. Large-scale efforts to recreate their classic findings have so far been successful. One bias they discovered—people’s tendency to overvalue the first piece of information that they get, in what is known as the “anchoring effect”—not only passed a replication test, but turned out to be much stronger than Kahneman and Tversky thought.
What portion of the scientists in the book are represented by Kahneman and Tversky? The other scientists in the book did not go to great lengths to avoid sampling bias. The authors could not be relied on to spot it either.
I don't see any point you made being bolstered. The anchoring effect you mention in another comment doesn't permit a scientist or statistician to throw their hands up in the air and say one mechanical turk group is as average as any other pseudo random group.
