<blockquote>
  <p><em>Abstract</em></p>
  
  <p>Statistical rituals largely eliminate statistical thinking in the social sciences. Rituals are indispensable
  for identification with social groups, but they should be the subject rather than the procedure of
  science. What I call the “null ritual” consists of three steps: (1) set up a statistical null hypothesis, but
  do not specify your own hypothesis nor any alternative hypothesis, (2) use the 5% significance level
  for rejecting the null and accepting your hypothesis, and (3) always perform this procedure. I report
  evidence of the resulting collective confusion and fears about sanctions on the part of students and
  teachers, researchers and editors, as well as textbook writers.</p>
