A Failed Replication of the Umbrella-Loan Proximity Finding, Tested on Under-Seat Bag Hooks
A paper from the School of Emergent Priorities pre-registers a direct replication of the University's umbrella-loan proximity finding on under-seat bag hooks in eleven lecture theatres, finds end-of-lecture collection flat across distance-to-exit (logistic coefficient 0.008, 95% CI spanning zero), and records the Horizon Register's subsequent restriction of new hooks to the door-adjacent third of each theatre, with no ordinary override.
