ny_quant"I want to sincerely apologize for the distress the report caused the authors, and to make clear that we completely oppose the sentiments it expressed. The report contained objectionable language, and the authors were understandably upset."
Такой, панымаешь, distress ... На что же девушки обиделись? А вот на что:
“It would probably be beneficial to find one or two male biologists to work with (or at least obtain internal peer review from, but better yet as active co-authors)” to prevent the manuscript from “drifting too far away from empirical evidence into ideologically biased assumptions,” the reviewer wrote in one portion.
“Perhaps it is not so surprising that on average male doctoral students co-author one more paper than female doctoral students, just as, on average, male doctoral students can probably run a mile a bit faster than female doctoral students,” added the reviewer (whose gender is not known).
Со вторым утвеждением я не согласен. Я тоже считаю это неудивительным, но совершенно по другой причине.
