By successfully working as a slave servant to the Bey of Constantine, he eventually obtained his freedom from captivity.

In 1721 he became a seaman on the ''Hoffnung'', a ship belonging to his father. In 1724, on a voyage from Nantes to Hamburg, Olufs’ ship was seized by Algerian pirates and he, and his two cousins, were taken hostage. Olufs' family could not afford the high price which was demanded in ransom by the Barbary slave traders for his release. Because the ship had been sailing under Hamburg colours, the family's request for a loan from the slavery fund of the Danish Kingdom was rejected. Subsequently, Olufs was sold as a slave on Algiers' slave ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

HARKing
HARKing (hypothesizing after the results are known) is an acronym coined by social psychologist Norbert Kerr that refers to the questionable research practice of “presenting a post hoc hypothesis in the introduction of a research report as if it were an a priori hypothesis”. Hence, a key characteristic of HARKing is that post hoc hypothesizing is falsely portrayed as a priori hypothesizing. HARKing may occur when a researcher tests an a priori hypothesis but then omits that hypothesis from their research report after they find out the results of their test; inappropriate forms of post hoc analysis and/or post hoc theorizing then may lead to a post hoc hypothesis. Types Several types of HARKing have been distinguished, including: ;THARKing: Transparently hypothesizing after the results are known, rather than the secretive, undisclosed, HARKing that was first proposed by Kerr (1998). In this case, researchers openly declare that they developed their hypotheses after they observe ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
