BAKER–MILLER PINK

LITIn 1979 Alexander Schauss reported that a bright pink (named for two Seattle naval correctional officers) calmed inmates and reduced strength, and many holding cells were painted it. Controlled tests did not support the claims: Pellegrini et al. (1980–81), Gilliam & Unruh (1988), and a highly standardised prison experiment by Genschow, Noll, Wänke & Gersbach (2014, Psychology, Crime & Law) found no reduction in aggression.

MODELRun a simulated trial: two groups of "inmates" in a pink cell and a white cell, with aggression scores drawn from the same distribution (true effect = 0, as the replications suggest). Each run shows the observed difference and Cohen's d. Small trials sometimes produce a striking "effect" by chance, which is how a false finding can start. Nesting: a pink cell inside white walls, in the void.
