hojacking

When a women sleeps with another women's husband with the intent to take over a wife's spousal, family and child-rearing responsibilities rather than establishing her own.

By hojacking my husband, that woman was able to sleep him, earn his trust, got him to turn his back on me, take her side and divorce me simply so she could insert herself between me and the kids and exert influence over them like she had a real relationship with them.

p-hacking

Exploiting –perhaps unconsciously - researcher degrees of freedom until p<.05.

p-hacking

Manipulation of statistics such that the desired outcome assumes "statistical significance", usually for the benefit of the study's sponsors. Usually done by ex post facto choice of significance labels and simple reporting of results as being conclusive regardless of calculated p-value. This depends on the public's general lack of understanding of statistical measures and press non-reportage of details.

Also the basis of nutrition research.

Study: "Soy protein was shown to reduce cancer rates in rats with a p <1.0" (effectively random data)

Next day's headline: "Soy Cures Cancer"

Sales soar 1000%

p-hacking = Profit.
