P-hacking refers to the manipulation of data or experimentation methods to find statistically significant results, often by selectively reporting or analyzing data. Publishing both strong and weak results is not an example of p-hacking; it is actually a practice that can help mitigate the effects of p-hacking by ensuring that all findings, regardless of their support for the hypothesis, are reported.
