For example, Alan Feingold, author of “Gender Differences in Personality: A Meta-Analysis,” conducted a secondary check between the data and the conclusion of three experiments and found errors between the results and the data displayed.

In Hamlet, this concept of meta-theatre is depicted through Hamlet’s viewing of himself being in a play. Whereas he is truly…

Meta ethical Subjectivism suggests that moral judgements cannot be true or false because they are not trying to describe anything. Moral judgements are instead…
