ReplicationResearch.org is now open for submissions!

Submit replications and reproductions from many different fields, as well as conceptual contributions. With diamond OA, open and citable peer review reports, and reproducibility checks, we push the boundaries of open and fair publishing.
Now this is a new one: My university's license of SAGE journals allows me to view but not to download the research articles. According to ChatGPT read-access costs 100K€ p.a. If you want to make 100% sure that interested readers can access your article, publish it in a #diamondopenaccess journal.

Preregistrations without Code do not Prevent P-Hacking: You can increase your chances for a significant finding in the absence of real effects even with correlations and t test despite having preregistered your hypothesis (e.g., simply changing arguments in the functions).

Commercial publishers are smart: They have constructed a prisoner's dilemma for researchers, institutions, and countries from which they profit. I'll be one of the people talking about resesarch assessment in practice at a German webinar tomorrow - tune in to join the discussion!

If have an academic contribution such as a blog post, teaching materials, a coded website, dataset, etc. Please consider #long-termarchiving and #FAIRdata sharing. eg you can put it all on Zenodo and it will be findable for the next 20 years.

And please let me know if you find any of these things:

A lot is going on at @forrt.bsky.social! #OER, #metascience, #socialjustice, and much more. If you want to get a glimpse of some of the projects, check out this beautiful booklet at forrt.org/booklet created by @irissmal.bsky.social

ReplicationResearch.org is now #PCI-friendly category 2! Recommended submissions will receive a response within five days about whether or not another round peer-review is needed.

Academia is brutal: Paywalls, replication crisis, intransparency, inequity, billion dollar donations in peer review, etc. Read in our inaugural editorial how R2 solves these problems. www.uni-muenster.de/Ejournals/in...

Just noticed that it says on Elsevier's Wikipedia page that the section on criticism of academic practices "may be too long to read and navigate comfortably". I think you should definitely give it a read!

Where to publish reproductions and replications? (At ReplicationResearch.org of course) But seriously: There are several journal dedicated to replications and reproductions!
For an overview of which journal accepts what types of studies:

I agree! We discussed a few reasons why specialized journals are necessary and how they can help together with our colleagues from
@jcre.bsky.social
at www.econstor.eu/handle/10419.... For example, as a non-commercial journal, we can afford to evaluate studies based on quality and not outcomes.

Should you do a replication (same data) or reproduction (different data)? Reproduction - if possible - is much easier and can inform replication attempts. Even without data, reproducibility can be assessed (eg via preregistrations). Here is our handbook's decision tree:

What are current opinions on data format (especially csv vs. sav/SPSS)? Sönning&Roettger refer to site.uit.no/trolling saying that you should rather use csv but you can easily open sav with open source software. Also, sav can come with useful labels vs csv with encoding issues. Chapter: osf.io/drvnz

How to decide what to replicate or reproduce? We recommend priotizing studies with "high value" or unclear results, considering practical limits, watching for bias, and always communicate choices openly.

I think this is just on point:"The publishers, I mean these are businesses, and businesses go for growth ... There just isn't that much good material that needs to be published. And so what they're ending up publishing is stuff that should never be published."-Bishop

"The proof established by the test must have a specific form, namely, repeatability." (Dunlap, 1926). And researchers have more and more done so. Read why replications are important and how the last years have seen a strong rise of replications in our open handbook: forrt.org/replication_...

Just learned about this diamond journal, which has apparently been running since 2015! Looks like a very nice place for any meta-sciency work & probably deserves some visibility.

Also, I think this is a great opportunity to conduct a reproduction/replication that you can later submit to our new replication journal 👀

The Münster Replication Games will take place on November 28, 2025!
+ 1 day event to conduct reproduction/replication
+ connect with fellow researchers interested in OS
+ refine your coding skills
+ become a co-author on a meta-paper
