# File drawer problem
The file drawer problem describes the tendency in Academia to support the publishing of positive effects in studies instead of null effects. Null effect studies are said to be "forgotten in file drawers" and remained doomed to not be published.
This is a tremendous issue as it can lead to a bias in the literature of positive effects and meta analysis that show larger effect sizes than they should.
