AB - [Imagine that you have interviewed eight extraterrestrials and submitted the results for publication in a mental health journal. When you eventually receive the editor’s decision letter, it is likely to take one of several forms. The editor may state that the topic area is outside the purview of the journal. Reading between the lines, you may wonder if the editor questions your sanity—What is wrong with you to be studying them? The editor may question your results—either because you have presented extraterrestrials as so similar to humans that it defies credibility or else the factors that set them apart are so bizarre the editor does not believe them. If the editor knows you personally, you may be advised to pursue more mainstream research, especially if you are junior in your career. In short, you may be criticized for your choice of topic or your results, but no one is going to be concerned with sampling issues. Eight extraterrestrials are sensational enough—there is no need to explain whether your selection was representative.]
