论文摘要
Salehi等人最近的一篇论文。声称在大学物理学测试中，主要人口群体之间在分数中发现的差异是由于大学前准备的差异所致。但是，没有任何证据表明制备差异比任何其他差异更为重要。在一种情况下，男性/女性差异实际上提供了证据表明准备差距并不重要。
A recent paper by Salehi et al. claims that the differences found between major demographic groups on scores in introductory college physics tests are due to differences in pre-college preparation. No evidence is produced, however, to show that preparation differences are more causally important than any other differences. In one case, the male/female difference, the paper actually provides evidence that preparation gaps are unimportant.
