Separate to that how cynical should we be about these psychology studies? As a science it seems hell bent on demonstrating that it is closer to poetry or religion which means we should start with an extremely sceptical prior before closely examining evidence /especially/ when it is telling us something to which we're sympathetic. Stats is hard, sure. Get it wrong by all means, repeatedly wrong even. There is no excuse for not owning that and correcting it rather than doubling down when that comes out if you're claiming to be a science. None. No excuse for not clearly identifying it every time it happens and publicly noting it. [1] No excuse that every first year, university level psych textbook seems to contain the completely discredited [2] "Stanford Prison Experiment" as though it was anything other than gross scientific fraud. It is still being taught to first year as though it were science. How? Seriously. Is everyone in psychology a fraud? Surely not.

edit: links backing it up for those who haven't yet heard how bad it is or just want it to go away. It won't.
