Short, supplementary report: Critical abilities, graduate education (psychology), and belief in unsubstantiated phenomena.

This report, a supplement to T. Gray and D. Mill (1990), is concerned with how readily 32 psychology graduate students recognize that crucial, control group type information is missing from brief abstracts that make a particular claim. Psychology students, like their counterparts in biology, do not, in general, spontaneously recognize weaknesses in the abstracts.
