Hooker's 2014 reanalysis of the DeStefano dataset — the paper that amplified Thompson's disclosure — was retracted roughly six weeks after publication for undeclared competing interests and post-publication concerns about its methods and statistical analysis.
The Editor and Publisher regretfully retract the article as there were undeclared competing interests on the part of the author which compromised the peer review process. Furthermore, post-publication peer review raised concerns about the validity of the methods and statistical analysis, therefore the Editors no longer have confidence in the soundness of the findings.
