摘要

Bird等人（2024）提出了一种有效禁止使用认知测试分数作为因变量的混合回归研究。他们的核心论点是道德和政治，但他们也对方法论提出了科学的批评。尽管缺乏道德或政治上的显著性，但许多备受推崇的混合回归研究检查了广泛的医学和心理特征，属于他们的科学批判范围。如果因变量是政治敏感的，拒绝混合回归分析的科学合法性，但如果因变量是政治无痛的，接受它，可能会导致道德谬误。（PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA，版权所有）。

The moralistic fallacy in a selective critique of admixture regression: Commentary on Bird et al. (2024).

Bird et al. (2024) propose an effective ban on admixture regression research that uses cognitive test scores as the dependent variable. Their core argument is moral and political, but they also offer a scientific critique of the methodology. Many highly regarded admixture regression studies examining a wide range of medical and psychological traits fall within their scientific critique, despite a lack of moral or political salience. Rejecting the scientific legitimacy of admixture regression analysis if the dependent variable is politically sensitive but accepting it if the dependent variable is politically painless may entail the moralistic fallacy.
