Divorce study felled by a coding error gets a second chance
What is this about?
A paper was given the chance for correction, following detection of errors in data coding and therefore in results. Such mistakes often mean that papers are retracted. This is a factual case.
Why is this important?
An interesting example of case, signifying that not all retractions are due to conscious data/results manipulation of the papers' authors
