My team has systematically tracked every big team science initiative throughout the history of science. This is a truly momentous and historical achievement. Congrats to the many researchers who worked together to pull it off.

In addition to the published articles, you can now access several preprints reporting SCORE outcomes including @srajtmajer.bsky.social et al reporting on the machine assessments and @fallonmody.bsky.social et al reporting on human assessments. They are all linked here: www.cos.io/score-evidence

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

Good coverage of important study on replicability studies published today in Nature. Bottom line: Some studies do replicate, some do not (at least initially). But it is hard to know which. @briannosek.bsky.social sums it up well at the end: 1/3

Investigating the analytical robustness of the social and behavioural sciences www.nature.com/articles/s41... - glad to have played an ever-so-small part in this!

Here are my conversations with @briannosek.bsky.social and Tim Errington on Metascience Matters Brian: www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DCV... Tim: www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EDA... We discussed their replication projects in psychology and cancer biology, the Center for Open Science, and many other topics.

proud to have contributed a tiny bit by being one of the 865 💪

The first three SCORE papers are out today in Nature. This program really defined my pre-tenure career. Always grateful to Adam Russell and @briannosek.bsky.social for the experience. NYTimes has featured it as well: www.nytimes.com/2026/04/01/s...

In this enormous meta-research project we put claims in social-science papers to the test and the results from the project have now been published in Nature.

Large-Scale Collaboration Releases New Findings on Research #Credibility (via @cos.io) www.cos.io/about/news/l... #SCORE #openresearch #scholcomm

📄Published Today in Nature: 500 researchers reproduced 100 studies across the social & behavioral sciences to assess their analytical robustness (led by @balazsaczel.bsky.social & @szaszibarnabas.bsky.social). Article: www.nature.com/articles/s41... Preprint: osf.io/preprints/me... TLDR: 1/11

Wissenschaftler haben 164 Studien überprüft. Die Hälfte bestätigte sich nicht. Wurde da gepfuscht? Der Psychologieprofessor Brian Nosek hat andere Erklärungen.

My new piece "Reproducibility: how to strengthen a weak foundation" is out today @nature.com! 🎉 How reproducible is research in the social & behavioural sciences? A new study by Miske et al. assessed 600 papers across 62 journals: the results are sobering. 📄 doi.org/10.1038/d415... 📄 rdcu.be/fbcq5

Had a small part of this that I am pretty proud of: Full push-button reproducible manuscripts from data to manuscript. Nearly every stat, figure, number, table, etc is pulled directly from analysis code and data and "knit" with manuscript text written in Google Docs. Blog post coming soon ...

🧵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 👇

I wrote today about a big study on replication--and why it's so hard to know if a study will hold up or not. Gift link: nyti.ms/4sNu3MF

The credibility of scientific journal articles might be bolstered if they carried a score capturing their rigor, such as whether the findings could be replicated. But constructing a telltale indicator of replicability remains a challenge. #openscience @science.org www.science.org/content/arti...

SCORE, a collaboration of 865 researchers, is now released as three papers in Nature, six preprints, and a lot of data (cos.io/score/). SCORE examined repeatability of findings from the social-behavioral sciences and tested whether human and automated methods could predict replicability.

Today, the SCORE program releases its primary results! 865 researchers examined research credibility across the social and behavioral sciences, publishing three papers in Nature + five preprints. 📑 Explore the papers: www.nature.com/colle... ℹ️ Read more about SCORE: www.cos.io/score
