Evidential Value in ANOVA-Regression Results in Scientific Integrity Studies

Some scientific publications are under suspicion of fabrication of data. Since humans are bad random number generators, there might be some evidential value in favor of fabrication in the statistical results as presented in such papers. In case of ANOVA-Regression studies we present the evidential value of the results of such a study in favor of the hypothesis of a dependence structure in the underlying data, which indicates fabrication, versus the hypothesis of independence, which is the ANOVA model assumption. Applications of this approach are also presented.
