I think the social sciences have long understood that if you include any equations in your academic papers, other morons are more likely to believe your conclusions. The mathematically-inclined, on the other hand, would just giggle at the use of these equations. Of course, these mathematically-inclined individuals aren't usually reading papers in the social sciences. It's a perfect system.
