Ach nee: Das gibt's wirklich. Frisch aus dem hause Everett jun.: http://www.scientificamerican.com/podcas...u-13-06-12

Zitat:For instance, linguistic diversity is correlated with the number of traffic accidents in a country, even controlling for population size, population density, GDP and latitude. While there may be hidden causes, such as state cohesion, it would be a mistake to take this as evidence that linguistic diversity caused traffic accidents.
Zitat:Coming across statistical patterns by chance has always been part of the scientific process. However, with culture, it’s much more difficult to intuitively distinguish real patterns from noise or historical influence. Correlations between unexpected features will continue to be exciting, but researchers should apply the right controls and see the studies as motivational rather than direct tests of hypotheses.

Bernard Comrie schrieb:Bernard Comrie, the director of the linguistics department at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany, says Everett may be on to something, at least in showing that a real correlation exists between altitude and ejectives.
Like others, however, he is more skeptical when it comes to Everett's suggested explanations, but says they are not "unreasonable."
Comrie also says that the controversy may give linguistic science a shake-up it needs.
"I think [this research] is important in that it really suggests a way in which one could seriously investigate a kind of claim that has largely been neglected by linguists," Comrie says.
"This is a direction they are going to have to consider. So far, linguists are rather negative toward such generalizations, but more because their ideological background leads them to be negative, rather than because there is strong empirical evidence against a particular claim."
