Scholars are increasingly aware that studies—across many disciplines—cannot be replicated by independent researchers. Here, the authors describe how medical education research may be vulnerable to this “replication crisis,” explain how researchers can act together to reduce risks, and discuss the positive steps that can increase confidence in research ...

Quantitative and Qualitative Approaches to Generalization and Replication–A Representationalist View
In this paper, we provide a re-interpretation of qualitative and quantitative modeling from a representationalist perspective. In this view, both approaches attempt to construct abstract representations of empirical relational structures.
