#GDRI_rep Update 9: We have been waiting a couple of months to make two announcements. A few journals were in the process of retracting GDRI article. The editors informed the authors and then lawyers got involved. Who knows how long it will take.

Took part yesterday in @freieuniversitaet.bsky.social's Replication Games, it was such a nice experience! People were lovely and the work was a very fun challenge.

Thanks to @i4replication.bsky.social and @janmarcus.de for organizing this, it was absolutely worth enduring the ride from Dortmund. 😄

At @i4replication.bsky.social it is our ambition to foster a replication culture in the social sciences – and we hence welcome if our approaches are replicated as well: Replication Games on using LLM in experiments, in Valencia and Oxford. talkingtomachines.org/projects/ime...

The Brno Replication Games were a success!🥳 Many thanks to our awesome replicators who spotted a range of coding errors and fixed incorrectly specified models. Many thanks also to @econmuni.bsky.social for having us: you are the reason economists love coming back every year😊
