My initial vitriol against academics was perhaps unnecessary. The research is clearly uninterested in the large body of serious research around this subject. It is perhaps unfair to say that low quality research is inherent to business school academics in general.
Well, somebody can just falsify that claim by posting some well known excellent scientific research written by business school academics.
Which is why we don't judge research based on single studies but rather of a population of them.

What does the population average of business school research look like?

Which is why we don't judge a race based on individuals but rather of a population of them.

What does the population average of <insert race here> look like ?

Race is not a empirically valid construct
