The research method is described, the statistics are based on a survey of 1000 participants.

BUT you cannot note that without providing the source information. There is no evidence that this study existed.

He explains it better than I do: https://abegaustad.medium.com/this-academic-paper-on-biracial-children-with-african-american-fathers-is-likely-a-fabrication-b26d900e96b4

I read that article, and while he's not wrong the paper has some issues, it doesn't prove it was not accurate either.

We cannot assume it's accurate if it's not reliable.

The main problem is that it's being used by many online as an accurate source, whereas we know for a fact that it has NOT shown the appropriate evidence of the sources of the statistics. There is no way of knowing if it is accurate, unless one were to conduct a similar study, at great expense. It's obvious that the essay is not reliable.
