New statistical metrics for multisite replication projects [PDF]
Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series A: Statistics in Society, 2017 Increasingly, researchers are attempting to replicate published original studies using large, multisite replication projects, at least 134 of which are completed or ongoing. These designs are promising to assess whether the original study is statistically consistent with the replications and to re-assess the strength of evidence for the scientific ...

Is spacing really the friend of induction?
Frontiers in Psychology, 2014 Inductive learning takes place when people learn a new concept or category by observing a variety of exemplars. Kornell and Bjork (2008) asked participants to learn new painting styles either by presenting different paintings of the same artist ...

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 ...

“Voodoo” Science in Neuroimaging: How a Controversy Transformed into a Crisis
Social Sciences, 2022 Since the 1990s, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) techniques have continued to advance, which has led researchers and non specialists alike to regard this technique as infallible.

, 2009 The class of beta regression models is commonly used by practitioners to model variables that assume values in the standard unit interval (0, 1). It is based on the assumption that the dependent variable is beta-distributed and that its mean is related ...

Replication to assess statistical adequacy [PDF]
Economics, 2018 Abstract‘Statistical adequacy’ is an important prerequisite for securing reliable inference in empirical modelling. This paper argues for more emphasis on replication that specifically assesses whether the results reported in empirical studies are based on statistically adequate models, i.e., models with valid underpinning statistical assumptions that ...
