Social science and replication

11 December, 2013

The hesitation to reproduce and replicate datasets inhibits clarity and can obscure research results. Alex Sutherland and Nicole Janz argue for a cultural shift to demand more replication of results which can help policymakers and academics alike to bring greater legitimacy and relevance to research.

The problem is cultural: Gherghina and Katsanidou found that only 18 of 120 political science journals have a replication policy in which they state authors should upload data for their papers.

I don't follow political science research. It's interesting to me that even that many require the data to be uploaded. Quite a few of us would like to see the data from the PACE Trial.
