| Abstract: | This article proposes the use of Frank Sulloway's Born to Rebel: Birth Order, Family Dynamics, and Creative Lives to teach standards for good and bad research. It describes ways the book can be employed to assess an assiduous but perhaps overambitious researcher's use of such devices as coding, expert ratings, significance testing, etc, and offers references to critical assessments of Sulloway's book which can guide the students as they draw their own conclusions about the quality and durability of his methods and findings. |
