A.There does appear to be a potential to create a bias. There is
an incentive to make the results statistically insignificant.
B.There does appear to be a potential to create a bias. There is
an incentive to produce data showing identical brain volumes.
C.There does not appear to be a potential to create a bias. The
organizations collecting the data are reputable.
D.There does not appear to be a potential to create a bias. The
organizations would not gain from putting spin on the data.
