Re: personal problems at work TW: Child death

I can't speak for anon but I do understand the difference between data and a paper. The fact that you can't seem to differentiate between anecdotal data, a hypothesis which has been or is in the process of being scrutinized and debated and information that you can legally use to diagnose or treat people is far more worrying to me.

For your own sake, I sincerely hope that you learn the difference between anecdotal evidence and information/practices that are generally accepted and used within your field to diagnose and treat injuries before you're entrusted with another human being's care.

(Also? Your continued insistence on using faulty and potentially inaccurate information while arguing an ultimately unhelpful tangent to the original poster's problem has demonstrated that you currently don't seem to know the difference between references you can use as the starting point for a project or further reading/research and references that you should use to defend your theories.)

Um... not the other anon, but I'm pretty sure that diagnostic statistics from hospitals are not anecdotal data. That's, like, about as un-anecdotal as you can get. I mean, I guess you could argue about inaccurate diagnosis of brain injury in hospitals but... yeah.

Straight numbers are kind of objective rather than subjective.

I was under the impression from herpymcderp's comments that the stats she/he was citing were from a teacher's anedotes during class since it was pretty emphatically stated the cited stats weren't written down anywhere - a textbook, a paper - that other people could reference them or available anywhere that other commentators could ask for them, view them or access them. They called their info "anecdata" at one point, which in most circles means "stories that people tell and present as data." (Which can be super useful for finding trends or 'we should look into this' but is not, in fact, quantifiable data.)

Regardless, however, IF there were actual statistics from an actual hospital's actual administration (and not pulled from a single person's recollections of Stuff They've Handled... Possibly Several Years Ago) I probably wouldn't say inaccurate diagnosis off the bat but I might ask about where the hospital is located (one close to certain events/areas would see more of certain types of injuries than a hospital in a different location) or ask about the hospital's specialties (since a hospital specializing in treating a certain kind of illness would certainly see a sharp upswing in patients with that sort of illness).

There are all sorts of things that affect statistics so I wouldn't take one set of statistics from one hospital (especially as they might be quite out of date... some people work and teach but other teach and cite from their working days) as being fact or beyond a healthy dose of skepticism. But I'd certainly rank a set of official statistics from an official source with more care than ancedata from someone with a limited perspective.
