Register now for our upcoming Coffee Lecture on #OpenScience Education: “Replication Games: Advancing Reproducibility with Open and Restricted Access Data” with @fialalenka.bsky.social, Insitute for Replication (University of Ottawa) on 8 September, 14:00-15:00 CEST: zbw.to/JVvZz

The Utrecht Replication Games are a hit! Many thanks to the local organizer Sarah Rezaei Khavas :) #openscience #replication #replicationgames

Incentives to reproduce and replicate articles are so bad. Even when your comment leads to the retraction of a PLOS One article, the reward is a (10 days late) email with a thank you at the bottom. Retraction notice: journals.plos.org/plosone/arti.... But we are not complaining about PLOS One 🧵

1/ Can AI help researchers check whether published social science results actually reproduce? In our new PNAS paper, we tested this directly in the AI Replication Games: 288 researchers, 103 teams, and real replication packages from quantitative social science.

#GDRI_rep Update 10 The orphan article has finally been retracted! Took more than a year, but at last. Read about our investigation (bsky.app/profile/i4re...) and updates ( #GDRI_rep). A good summary: a-ortmann.medium.com/the-asad-isl... and a-ortmann.medium.com/tallying-the...

I get all the justifications here, but the reason I don't use AI is that I just don't want to. I like writing emails and digging around for new papers online. Let me have my fun.

We just launched #GuesstheReplication (GutheR). It is a challenging game where you predict replicability based on the abstract and title of an original study. Play it now and beat my high score at lukasroeseler.github.io/GuessTheRepl... or use our free slides for teaching zenodo.org/records/1985...

OSF-induced frustration is one of the most replicable and robust effects to come out of the social sciences over the past decade

🚨 New AI Games round is live 🚨 Our first AI Games paper is now out at a top general interest journal (see preprint here: www.econstor.eu/bitstream/10... So… we’re launching the next stage 👇

What can large-scale studies tell us about reproducibility? In our webinar on April 16, researchers from COS, I4R, and META-REP will discuss findings from three papers—one from the recently published SCORE effort—and insights on reproducibility, transparency, and credibility cos-io.zoom.us/webin...

A package of papers looking at the social and behavioural sciences shows the value of researchers collaborating to further the cause of reproducible, replicable and robust findings go.nature.com/4cjtN1X

A massive seven-year project exploring 3,900 social-science papers has ended with a disturbing finding go.nature.com/4bZ9k0W

🧵1/ Our first meta-science paper (with 350+ coauthors) is published today in Nature. It presents one of the largest-ever reproducibility projects in economics & political science. Here’s what we found 👇

"If authors cannot stand by their own descriptions of their methods or data, retraction should be automatic," says @eugenie-reich.bsky.social.

I agree, we need a replication of this week of #LoveReplications. Just to confirm its awesomeness.😉 Thank you @aufdroeseler.bsky.social for organizing! #openscience

New preprint! We reanalyze 46 papers that use log-like specifications (ln(Z+1), inverse hyperbolic sine etc). We find widespread non-robustness, and we show through theory + simulation how these models drive spurious significance. 1/ doi.org/10.31222/osf...

Almost at the end of a very intense 3-day CBS Replication Games! Co-organised by @odissei.bsky.social and @i4replication.bsky.social, 19 researchers (6 teams) came together to replicate 6 papers using Dutch admin data from top economics journal @fialalenka.bsky.social @jackfitzgerald.bsky.social

Join us for the LOVE REPLICATIONS WEEK from March 2 - 6 with talks on reproductions, replications, how to find them, how to conduct them, how to have them conducted on your study, where to publish them, and much more!

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

On Jan 19th, we held the first Replication Games of 2026 at the University of Zurich! We had 47 participants reproducing papers from economics, political science, and psychology with great success. Many thanks to local organizers Johannes Ullrich and Joanna Rutkowska!

On my way to the Zurich Replication Games😎 48 replicators will be examining the #reproducibility and robustness of psychology, economics, and political science papers. Looking forward, thanks for having us, UZurich💪 #openscience

We always knew the Hunger Games were about the US in the future, but the Patriot Games are bringing it way closer to the present than we thought. Yikes.
