摘要

典型的取证统计分析有三个步骤：(1) 验证原始数据文件是否正确；(2) 验证从原始数据文件导出的统计分析文件是否正确；(3) 验证统计分析是否恰当。我们以一篇后来被撤稿的稿件为例，说明这三个步骤的应用，重点是步骤1。在没有外部来源进行比较的情况下，评估原始数据文件的标准是内部一致性和可信度。法医统计分析并不像神秘谋杀案，在很多情况下，发现伪造或编造的机制可能并不现实。

Fabrication in a study about honesty: A lost episode of columbo illustrating how forensic statistics is performed.

The three steps of a typical forensic statistical analysis are (1) verify that the raw data file is correct; (2) verify that the statistical analysis file derived from the raw data file is correct; and (3) verify that the statistical analyses are appropriate. We illustrate applying these three steps to a manuscript which was subsequently retracted, focusing on step 1. In the absence of an external source for comparison, criteria for assessing the raw data file were internal consistency and plausibility. A forensic statistical analysis isn't like a murder mystery, and it many circumstances discovery of a mechanism for falsification or fabrication might not be realistic.
