Flawed Research Analysis of Flawed Research Many articles were found that could have been used to illustrate flawed research or abuses of statistics. However, we chose to analyze two specific articles because they both contained high-quality arguments against the conclusions found in the study. The first article concentrates on children who watch television for more than one hour per day are more violent than those who watch less than an hour of television per day. The second article debates the facts that people who are able to legally carry concealed weapons are less likely to commit crimes than people who are not able to legally carry concealed weapons. This article analysis will discuss the information obtained in the studies and the errors made during the research process that imparts arguments against the validity of the deduced conclusions.
