A statistical definition for reproducibility and replicability [PDF]
, 2016 AbstractEveryone agrees that reproducibility and replicability are fundamental characteristics of scientific studies. These topics are attracting increasing attention, scrutiny, and debate both in the popular press and the scientific literature. But there are no formal statistical definitions for these concepts, which leads to confusion since the same ...

Frontiers in Psychology, 2023 ObjectiveMuch of psychological research has suffered from small sample sizes and low statistical power, resulting in unstable parameter estimates. The Bayesian approach offers a promising solution by incorporating prior knowledge into statistical models,

Z-Curve.2.0: Estimating Replication Rates and Discovery Rates
Meta-Psychology, 2020 This article introduces z-curve.2.0 as a method that estimates the expected replication rate (ERR) and the expected discovery rate (EDR) based on the test-statistics of studies selected for significance.

Conceptualizing and Evaluating Replication Across Domains of Behavioral Research [PDF]
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 2018, Vol. 41, e120, 40-41, 2018 We discuss the authors' conceptualization of replication, in particular the false dichotomy of direct versus conceptual replication intrinsic to it, and suggest a broader one that better generalizes to other domains of psychological research. We also discuss their approach to the evaluation of replication results and suggest moving beyond their ...

Modification of episodic memories by novel learning: a failed replication study
European Journal of Psychotraumatology, 2017 Background: After reactivation, memories can become unstable and sensitive to modification before they are restored into long-term memory. Using behavioural manipulations, reactivated memories may be disrupted via the mechanism of interference (i.e ...

Nature Communications, 2016 Scalable, integrative methods to understand mechanisms that link genetic variants with phenotypes are needed. Here we derive a mathematical expression to compute PrediXcan (a gene mapping approach) results using summary data (S-PrediXcan) and show its ...
