Replications of 21 high-profile social science findings demonstrate challenges for reproducibility of research published in the most prestigious scientific journals. The replication effect magnitudes were about 50% smaller than the original studies, and 8 of the 21 replications failed to find significant evidence for the original finding. Researchers betting in prediction markets were very accurate in predicting which findings would replicate and which would not. The limited reproducibility highlights the importance of improving science policies and practices to improve research credibility. The study is published today in Nature Human Behaviour and is a large international collaboration involving researchers from for instance the Stockholm School of Economics.
