There are many publicly available data sets and plenty of opportunities to mine data online, yet we see little if any original analysis based on them here. We either don’t have norms encouraging this or we don’t have enough people comfortable with statistics doing so.
In my case, I’m comfortable with statistics but don’t know where to find the data for questions that interest me. The fact that much research is nearly inaccessible if you’re not affiliated with a university or other large institution is also a problem.
